Hickoryworks Shagbark Hickory Syrup now in stock

Our latest Indiana-made product, Hickoryworks Shagbark Hickory Syrup, is now on the shelves.

Made in Brown County by the wife-husband team of Sherrie Yarling and Gordon Jones of Trafalgar, the syrup is not as sweet as maple syrup and nutty, slightly smoky and complex. Euell Gibbons would have loved this stuff! We took some to pour on the pancakes served at the Parke County Maple Syrup Fair recently and found it delicious, as did the couple from Illinois who were seated across the table from us. (The fresh Parke County maple syrup is also very good.)

In addition to pouring it on pancakes, Hickoryworks’ syrup can also be used in a variety of recipes, from drink mixes to glazes and desserts. I’m thinking that in case of a cold or sore throat, a half-and-half mix of Shagbark syrup and Maker’s Mark Bourbon would be a great way to treat the symptoms, too.

Hickoryworks Shagbark Hickory Syrup sells at Grapevine Cottage for $8.95 per 8-ounce jug.
