PURE MAPLE SYRUP
Ensign Family Maple

Sweet, sugary, complex: There
aren’t enough adjectives in the
world to describe how good this
syrup tastes. This waffle-topper from Ensign Family Maple is
strong in flavor and has a bold, deep color.
It comes in a variety of packages, including a 250mL glass leaf © Nicholas Thurkettle
which makes a great gift for anyone who enjoys the taste of
insanely delicious maple syrup. Other maple products include MALT WHISKEY
maple cream, maple sugar pieces and granulated maple sugar. Cortland Beer Company & Farm Distillery

Looking to grow your whiskey library? Along with their current lineup
of craft beers and local wines, Cortland Beer Co. & Farm Distillery has
a selection of distilled spirits including their unique Malt Whiskey.
It’s made primarily from locally grown and malted barley and aged in
newly charred barrels for at least 13 months. This easy sipper brings a
nose of fragrant oak and vanilla, and a warm, sweet palate with notes
of butterscotch, walnut, and spice. Plain and simple, it’s tasty.

own or to top other recipes like a tasty poutine.
There are few things better than a slice of warm apple pie, and
Hollenbeck’s Cider Mill is comparable to grandma’s baking. The
classic dish is made fresh every day, and they are loaded with
fresh, sweet apples and warm spices. You can opt for a thin,
flaky crust or get it finished with a layer of sweet streusel on top.
It’s packed with enough flavor on its own without any fancy top-
pings, but no one will object if you add a scoop of ice cream on
top. If you’re looking for something to wash that down with, they
also press their own cider on site.
