I'd Tap That

The Tapping Behind 'I'd Tap That'

Do you know how your favourite saucy sweetener is brought to life? Forget chocolate the real love story starts with a tree, a tap, and oozing liquid gold — a dreamy combination that delivers pure Canadian maple syrup for your enjoyment.

Between the crisp springtime of March and April, the sugary sap gets busy with an alternating freeze-thaw cycle flowing through the trunk and branches of a maple tree. Tapping maple is all about old-school charm with buckets gathering the sweet sap drop by drop and squeezing out every ounce of goodness from the trunk. Unlike the romantic tapping business, modern-day tubing systems are another option to get the sap from the tap, and although they may not whisper sweet nothings, they still do the trick.

As the season progresses, the maple sap deepens into a richer, darker flavour and a taste that is impossible to resist. Lucky for us falling hard is risk-free when it comes to pure maple syrup!

From golden, amber, dark, and very dark – as well as a selection of tasty speciality products like maple spread and maple sugar –  there’s a flavour grade and product made for everyone. Otherwise known as a sweet soulmate that will keep you warm into the next few seasons.

Once the sap has been tapped from the maple trees and is collected in the sugar shack, the real magic happens. The sap is whisked and boiled down into the pure maple syrup we all love and keep coming back for.

So, this Valentine’s Day ditch the ordinary sauces and syrups for pure maple, a rich and natural beauty. Use it in your cocktails and let it add a sweet note to your spicy and hot creations!

After all, the best love stories always start with a little tapping.
