Dang that's pretty expensive compared to what a quart of homemade syrup sells for in some states south of you.

It's been a really bad year for Maple Syrup in Maine. That may have affected the prices.

Ah yeah that would be. We got almost 50 gallons of syrup (yes syrup) this year.

Not around here. Near perfect conditions for three weeks in a row. And another good week ahead. I’m in northern Washington county. I have 20 taps and haven’t been too aggressive and I’ve gotten 9 quarts so far.

Fair, I suppose I should clarify that it's been a bad syrup year in southern Maine.

Guy I work with sells his for 20. I'm happy to pay it and support him.

I buy two half gallon jugs of dark syrup every spring. It costs me $72.

That's $18 quart.

I too can do math.
I think you could charge more.
