Overview

A 12.7 fluid ounce bottle of organic Grade A dark maple syrup from Shady Maple Farms, sold as a single bottle rather than a multi-pack. Dark syrup carries a stronger, more robust maple flavor than amber grades, which suits cooking and baking as much as pouring over pancakes.

Shady Maple Farms sells this as straight table syrup, with the listing itself abbreviating the grade as dark rather than amber. That distinction matters more than it looks: dark grade is a bolder, later-harvest flavor, so buyers expecting a milder everyday syrup should check the grade before ordering.

  • 12.7 fl oz glass bottle
  • USDA organic
  • U.S. Grade A dark color
  • Gluten free

Who it's for

Suits households that already know they prefer dark, robust maple syrup over the milder amber grade and want a single organic bottle rather than a case. Less useful for anyone who wants a delicate syrup for delicate desserts.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Organic certification on the label
  • Dark grade gives a stronger maple flavor than amber
  • Single bottle size, no case commitment
Cons
  • No brand-provided nutrition or ingredient detail beyond the syrup itself
  • 12.7 oz runs out quickly for a household that bakes often

Performance notes

Grade A dark syrup is harvested later in the maple season than amber grades, which is what gives it the deeper, more pronounced maple flavor and slightly thicker body. That makes it hold up better as a baking or cooking ingredient rather than only a table topping, since the flavor doesn't get lost against other ingredients.
