Runamok Maple Syrup Organic Sugarmaker's Cut - Grade A Vermont Maple Syrup, Amber Color, Rich Taste | Pure Organic Maple Syrup & 100% Natural | Classic Breakfast & Pancake Syrup | 12.68 Fl Oz (375mL)

Prior to purchasing this Sugarmaker's Cut by Runamok, I had been buying the Canadian Maple from Escuminac - which is excellent. That maple syrup made me a believer, and forever changed my understanding of what makes a good maple syrup. So - after purchasing that brand for a few years, I decided to see what Vermont's maple scene looked like. I purchased this Sugarmaker's Cut and the Cinnamon-Vanilla Infused flavor. Wow - I was really surprised by the exceptional taste and overall quality of these syrups! In particular, the Sugarmaker's Cut really blew my family and I away. Really good, pure flavors, sweet, but not cloyingly sweet. A little goes a long way. From the packaging, bottle and presentation - this is a top-notch maple, and one I will continue to buy again and again. My only gripe - it's quite expensive at around $19 for a 12.7 oz bottle. I had hoped it would be around the same price (or even slightly less) than the high-quality Canadian imports, being this is a domestic product. Sadly - it is MORE expensive than the Canadian maples. That being said - the old adage "You get what you pay for" holds true - as this is a very premium product. If you like your maple syrups flavorful and pure - you can't do much better than what Runamok is producing. You can get very very good Canadian maple syrups - but if you want to try something unique, Runamok offers many "infused" maple blends, from bourbon barrel aged, to cinnamon, vanilla, etc - they have you covered. For me - I'll stick with the Sugarmaker's Cut - as I prefer maple syrup to be pure and simple, but flavorful. This hits on all points. If you can get past the high price of entry - this is well worth your time.

This syrup has made me crave pancakes daily and I usually only crave them once a year. Nicely buttered cakes, crispy edges and a few chocolate chips. A little sauce cup filled with this syrup for dipping. If you've never dipped each bite of pancake, you're missing out. I do wish the syrup was cheaper. It comes in a very nice, heavy-bottom glass bottle that we'll be keeping. It's a normal level of sweet, not knock-you-out sweet like imitation syrup. And it's organic. Which I love.

I decided to sample some high-end maple syrup and Runamok was voted the best on an Instagram test. I ordered it and made my specialty pancakes the same day. It did not dissapoint! Very tasty and flavorful. At over $22 for a bottle, it compares to a decent bottle of bourbon but the taste and quality are worth the price. So, if one is careful not to slosh half the bottle out, I see numerous servings being had.

I was so taken by the bottle, which is why I chose this one - the bottle did not disappoint! But for the price, I have had better. Still, I do like this product and would buy it again if my fav was not available.

OK, simply put. this syrup is incredible! Deep in flavor, complex thick, adds incrdible flavor to anything you put it on. In addition to pancakes and waffles, I use it in BBQ sauce and other recipes. So much beter than anything you can buy in grocery so long as you can stomach the price, as well!
