Runamok Maple in Vermont produces some of the best maple syrups we've ever had, and infused with our spices, they're totally divine.
Our Smoked Star Anise gives syrup a rich licorice flavor with hints of smoke and citrus. It's great in herbal teas and flan, and on hot oatmeal. It's also a great addition to Southeast Asian cuisine, where anise and a sweetener like palm sugar are common ingredients.
Our Royal Cinnamon lends a sweetly spicy flavor that melds beautifully with the natural caramel sweetness of maple syrup. This is fantastic on a stack of flapjacks, drizzled over cream of wheat, poured into coffee or added to rice pudding.

ABOUT RUNAMOK MAPLE
Eric and Laura are the husband-and-wife team that started Runamok Maple in Vermont over a decade ago. It all starts in the forest of maple trees (called a sugarbush) that are tapped for their sap. The sap is then concentrated into maple syrup in their sugar house (also called a sugar sack or sugar shanty). Runamok Maple is certified organic by the Northeastern Organic Farmers Association and Bird Friendly by the National Audubon Society. The sugarbush also makes excellent homes for migratory birds, as well as indigenous wildlife.
Once the sap comes into the sugarhouse, it is concentrated through a reverse osmosis machine and boiled down to syrup. The boiling process is intense and the hours are long. When there are roughly six weeks to make a year’s worth of product, there is no stopping and starting mid-run to catch some sleep. It’s an art of endurance and on-the-job problem-solving. Once the syrup has reached the proper concentration, it is filtered and stored in barrels, where it's ready to get infused with spices!

My go to maple syrup
I love this Star Anise flavored maple syrup! Overnight oats, couple tablespoons over chicken *******, add to my coffee, endless fun with this amazing flavored (but light and not overwhelming flavored) syrup! Buy it now!

Best syrup ever!
I never thought I’d be this obsessed with a maple syrup, but this one honestly takes the cake. Super flavorful without being wildly sweet, and super versatile on everything. The star anise also gives it a nice complex flavor, so worth rebuying.

Our pancakes are next level! This is the new family favorite. Delicious!

Not your ordinary syrup
The combination of pure maple syrup, elevated with the star anise, makes a wonderful ingredient for marinades, or just over ice cream and yogurt. Delicious.
