Birch sap syrup – 100ml
33,43 €
In stock
Birch syrup from Latvia is tapped directly in the untouched nature of Gauja National Park. Here, the fresh birch sap is harvested in spring, when the trees naturally circulate the sap.
The reduction takes place outdoors in the middle of the forest. Large, open pans are filled with birch sap, and fires are lit underneath them. Over open flames and under the open sky, the sap is slowly reduced as the water evaporates. The process is time-consuming and requires constant monitoring to ensure an even and controlled concentration.
The reduction ratio is significant:
- 1000 liters of birch sap → 1 liter of birch syrup
- Slow reduction over open fire
- Produced directly in nature
The result is a concentrated syrup with a clean, lightly caramelized and mineral sweetness. The flavor is more subdued than maple syrup and has a natural Nordic profile with fine woody notes and a subtle bitterness.
Use:
- Glazing meat and grilled vegetables
- As sweetness in sauces and reductions
- In desserts or as an aromatic element in cocktails
