Thank you to Crown Maple for providing me with products in exchange for this honest blog review. All opinions are 100% my own.
My husband loves pure maple syrup. When I was asked to review Crown Maple’s Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup, I knew it would be a hit with him!
Crown Maple’s Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup is made with pure organic maple syrup. During the aging process, the maple syrup absorbs rich flavors of the bourbon from the barrels its stored in. Once it has reached perfection, it is sent off for bottling. Hurry to get your bottle of Crown Maple’s Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup, this is a limited edition product!
Crown Maple’s Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup is delicious over waffles and pancakes, they urge you to think outside of the bottle. Try adding Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup to ice cream, grilled stone fruit, oatmeal, or hot fruit cobbler.
My husband was happy to try Crown Maple’s Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup on a stack of homemade waffles. He said the syrup was absolutely delicious! We also shared Crown Maple’s Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup with my father in law. He too loved it!
While on the Crown Maple website, I noticed they have a Recipe tab. While perusing through the recipes, the Smoky Maple Bourbon Ribs caught my attention. Every year, my family has a rib competition. None of us really know what we are doing, we just have a fun family rib-cookoff. I wish I had seen the Smoky Maple Bourbon Ribs recipe before this year’s event. I would have won for sure! I am going to stash this recipe away for next year!

Hello, my name is Laurie. My family and I live near the Oregon coast. When we aren’t at work, in school, or on the volleyball court, we enjoy traveling, cheering for our favorite sports teams, playing outdoors, and checking off items on our bucket list. We are lucky in that both sets of our parents, as well as our siblings and their families, live within an hour of us. We get together often to help one another out, celebrate milestones, and go on adventures together.

The good real maple syrup is always the best. This sounds delicious. I am liking how they add a hint of the taste of bourbon I bet that gives it even a deeper flavor. I hadnt thought to use it on ice cream thats a good idea.
