Golden Delicate - This syrup—made in colder climates, usually sometime in late February—is the first syrup of the season to be tapped, so it's the lightest in color and the most delicate in flavor. To be able to really taste its light flavor, it's best for traditional uses: drizzled over pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, and yogurt.
Amber Rich - A bit darker in color, this grade is made mid-season, and has a smooth, more rounded flavor.
Dark Robust - One step up in flavor, this grade has a stronger and deeper flavor—it's almost brown sugar-like.
