Tuchel & Sohn Maple Syrup

Tuchel & Sohn Maple Syrup comes from three types of maple trees cultivated in Canada, the sugar maple, black maple and red maple. In cold climates, trees store starch in their trunks and roots before winter. The starch is then converted to sugar and it rises in the sap in late winter and early spring. To make maple syrup, careful openings are made by drilling holes into the trunks of the tree. Exuded sap is tapped and collected without harming the trees. After, the sap is boiled down, leading to a great amount of water evaporation. The result of this heating process is concentrated syrup.
