North America’s northeastern reaches were once completely covered by what is known in Canada as the Carolinian forest and in the US the Eastern Deciduous forest. The native inhabitants who called this forest home learned to carve a living from its natural wonders. One of the most miraculous of these was the sap of the mighty sugar Maple tree that dominated the forest from one end to the other. Early natives noticed that each spring, small animals would chew on the branches of the tree. They discovered that the animals were attracted to the sweet sap and devised a way to tap the trees but cutting notches in the bark to allow it to run out freely. This they would collect in pails and boil down to a thick, sweet syrup. Maple syrup!
When the first European settlers began arriving in 17th century, the natives showed them how to make the syrup. The sweet delicious flavour meant it very quickly became a staple of their diet. To this day, Canada and New England are world renowned for what can only be referred to as the “wonder of the woods”. We’ve captured this incredible syrup straight from the Canadian woods and added it to a luxury, high grown Ceylon tea for a sweet cuppa that’s second to none. Maple Tea – Cheers!
