I'm using this for The Master Cleanser right now, but I'll be buying more of this in the future as it's the best tasting maple syrup I've had. I've had a lot of "Grade A Dark Color Robust Taste" (Grade B) maple syrups before, and this is my favorite. I've had Grade B maple syrups from many vendors such as Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Sprouts, etc and this is the clear (or dark) winner.

As always, Grade B is better than A. Most think that B means less quality but it instead has to do with time of harvest and therefore, the flavor of the syrup as a result. If you taste them side by side as we did when we went to the very farm shown on the label, there is just no comparison between the A and B- the B has a nice, rich, darker flavor that is really different than the syrupy sweet name brands and is also quite good as an ice cream topping.

So tasty! When I first tasted real maple syrup, it was grade A and back then I thought that meant it was "the best". So that part about grading maple syrups is very misleading. I later learned that grade B has the richer flavor. So I bought this particular kind and WOW, what a difference. Grade A was like sugar syrup to me in the past but this has that rich maple flavor I craved. I refused to buy the fake maple syrup so we would just use jam on pancakes, etc. I can use this now - it's so tasty. Plus, we use maple syrup for other things, too.

Yum! Yum! Yum! This is the first time I have ever used pure maple syrup. I did my research on pure maple syrup and was surprised to learn "Grade B" is the best! I also decided to try Hidden Springs Organic from Vermont after reading the reviews. Oh my! I am so pleased...the taste is incredible and it is wonderful as a sugar substitute--healthier, too. I did not know that pure maple syrup is a little better than even honey as far as health benefits. I am using this as a replacement for sugar in baking and cooking as well as heating it up a little for drizzling over pancakes or French toast or even cornbread. I will purchase this again!

Excellent quality, good deal for the quantity - especially with free shipping.

While this syrup "ties" with other syrups for taste and texture, that tie is at the top. The brand offers different grades, and I prefer thicker grade As. Most people might say the B range has fuller, stronger tastes ("B = Better for maple syrup"), but I have tried Bs and prefer the lighter A taste. Lower density also means less syrup is needed to cover a given surface area in the time I have for my waffles, which means consistency of great flavor throughout meal and a longer-lasting jug. This Medium A is my all-time favorite, and I just had more of it this morning - so my review is fresh. :)

I don't even touch the corn syrup "maple syrups" in the typical NYC grocery store (they don't even begin to compare) - my review is largely concerning how this maple syrup compares to other real maple syrups.

Oh, and I also like that this syrup is organic and relatively local, as far as online purchasing is concerned. I have ordered several times from this brand and have never had a freshness/contamination/damage issue. While not a major factor in my purchasing decision, it is a factor and a plus knowing that the company's disinfectant use, etc. is scrutinized (or at least runs a heightened risk of scrutiny). It is also one of the tidbits bumping this review to a full 5 stars.
