                                Most bourbon aged maple syrups contain less than 2% alcohol by volume, and often far less, because the heating and aging processes cause the majority of the spirit to evaporate. This allows the syrup to absorb the rich, smoky flavors from the barrel without retaining the potency of the bourbon itself.
