Syrup Colors / Grades
As of the 2015 season we have four color names for syrup grades in Michigan. Each color name has been assigned a flavor profile. This reference system is used across North America and Europe. All four colors are considered Grade A regardless of color if:
- they have clarity,
- they don't contain off maple flavors,
- they are accurately brixed
Everything else is considered Grade B. The four Grade A colors and flavors will be labeled as:
| Grade | Color | Flavor Profile |
|---|---|---|
| A | Golden | Delicate |
| A | Amber | Rich |
| A | Dark | Robust |
| A | Very Dark | Strong |
Syrups are labeled a reference color until they reach the next lighter reference. For example, an "Amber" will range from Rich to Delicate in flavor. "Golden" will only have a delicate flavor regardless of how light it may be. "Very Dark" equals any color darker than reference color "Dark". Everything darker than "Dark" will have a strong flavor regardless of how dark it may be.
