Our maple syrup is made primarily from sugar maple sap. Sugar maple sap is preferred for maple syrup production because it has an average sugar content of two percent. Sap from other maple species is usually lower in sugar content, and about twice as much is needed to produce the same amount of finished syrup.

Of the hundreds of species of maple trees in the world, fourteen of them are native to the United States. The most popular species used for making maple syrup are:

Black Maple (Acer nigrum)
Mountain Maple (Acer spicatum)
Red Maple (Acer rubrum)
Silver Maple (Acer saccharinum)
Sugar Maple (Acer saccharum)

The sap from ornamental maple trees, such as Norway and Japanese Red Maple Trees, is cloudy and cannot be used for maple syrup production.
