Basil Hayden Bourbon + Ice + Maple Bacon Proof Syrup = HEAVEN

In truth, I had a hard time distinguishing between the traditional and maple bacon flavors. I first ordered the traditional (loved it), then the maple bacon, but couldn't detect much of a difference. Proof was super gracious in sending me another, free bottle of the maple bacon syrup in case, for some unlikely reason, my first bottle was mislabled. I suppose I have a dull palate, because I still couldn't detect much of a difference, but in the end it was inconsequential, because both are delicious. And I was super impressed with the support from this company.
Ronald B.
Could not get my old fashion to taste like I get in bars. That is till I tried Proof! Love it!
Michael .
I bought all three. Yum, yum and yum
Jim G.
This syrup lives up to expectations and is a welcome change to my already outstanding Old Fashioned. I use it in my morning homemade cold brew coffee as well. It’s probably good in strong hot coffee too!
chad B.
Never received the 3 I ordered. Emailed 3 times with no response. Horrible customer experience. I waited 4 days before doing this review and still haven't heard back. By the way I ordered these over 3 weeks ago.
Bobby V.
It’s just ok.....
Michael W.
It’s good, but I think there could be a little more maple and bacon flavor as it wasn’t very noticeable. Additionally, adding the syrup to just the alcohol leaves you with a syrupy, 2.5 oz drink, so you need to add some white soda or seltzer to make a regular-sized old-fashioned.
Diane C.
My grandmother’s favorite cocktail was the Old Fashion. My cousins and I recently went on a trip and roasted her with Old Fashions at the Biltmore. We’ve been trying to recreate it at home. The Proof Maple Bacon is so yummy and easy!
Jennifer C.
Proof syrup has arrived! Cracked it open tonight & both my husband and I are blown away - great stuff! Maple Bacon for the win!! Next order is definitely going to be the Pecan... Stay tuned.
Kaitlin M.
Really great quality and flavor. However, I was a little disappointed that you don't get a huge amount of "bacon" flavor; it is more a subtle smokiness from what I imagine would be the bacon. Maple is delicious and definitely present. Overall would order again but much more subtle than expected.
Scott N.
It’s a good mixer. I was just expecting more of a bacon flavor like Smokey or salty and this did not have it.
Jim G.
By nature, I am a bourbon drinker but this tequila cocktail called my name. It was perfect for cutting the humidity and delicious.
Elvia R.
I bought the Proof Maple Bacon Syrup for my son's 24th birthday and it was a big hit. The guys absolutely loved the flavor and the ease in making their Old Fashioned drinks. Will definitely buy it again!
karen m.
I have always loved Old Fashions, but they were a treat I would have out.
Now I can have them at home.......talk about a treat!
Kevin N.
I tried the Maple Bacon Proof Syrup and I loved it! Very tasty and so simple to make a great Old Fashioned every time!
Kenneth B.
I did an ultimate bacon buy infusing my bourbon with bacon at it was Great.
Also used a straight rye regular as the recipe on the bottle and was Great as well.
Jim M.
Ordered it two weeks ago and still haven’t received it. Reached out to support last week and still haven’t gotten a response yet.
Mark S.
Great Cocktails thanks
Todd W.
I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to make a perfect Old Fashioned every time with Proof!
Craig M.
Not tasting the maple or bacon. It’s good, just not tasting the difference between this and traditional.
Joseph C.
Best Damn Cocktail syrup ever!
Adam B.
Awesome mix. I was really visit at at first but it had me a first sip!
Kyle H.
I ordered a bottle as a gift for a client. The package arrived with a cracked cap that had some leakage down the side. I emailed the company to request a return and refund. Without asking, they just said we have shipped a new bottle. I replied and said that I don’t want a new one, it’s a gift- I Would just like to return and get a refund. Their response was this is what we do for damaged product. I screen shot a section of the website that reads “ We offer a 100% Happiness Guarantee! Let us know how we can help by email us at support@proofsyrup.com.“. Their response was “ Fair enough. If you honestly don't find your Proof delicious, let us know and we'll refund it and you can keep it too.” I do not drink, and I’m vegetarian. I have no use for a bacon syrup. I explained this to them and they said just to return the new bottle that they sent (without me asking) and they would issue a refund. When I asked about a return shipping label, they said we do not offer shipping labels for undamaged product! That was 7/26. I have emailed them on 7/26, 7/29, 7/31, 8/4 and today 8/7 with no response. They know they are wrong and are hoping I just forget so they don’t have to deal with their mistake.
Do not support this company.
Raymond N.
Great syrup!
Grace K.
Rich smooth taste that didn’t over power my good bourbon. Both Pecan and Maple Bacon were great.
Robert G.
It was surprisingly good especially with the orange peal! Have continued to sample for three days now...hahaha! Not a strong bacon taste or flaver and somewhat sweet. Am awaiting a different arrival to compare it too! Either way it is very good and a nice surprise!

Paul D.
What a phenomenal addition to my bar. I'm a bourbon guy ... the best of the best ... and this Maple bacon flavored was a perfect complement to my Angel's Envy. Added 2 Luxardo cherries for good measure and well, I'm a happy guy. Cheers!
Mike T.
Tasted as advertised. Not cloying or overpowered, but you definitely get the smoky bacon and sweet syrup hints. You could get the same effect for about 1/10 the price by making bacon-infused bourbon and then mixing some maple syrup into your standard simple syrup. But that is a fair amount of work, so if you just want something easy that you won't have to experiment with and you know will turn out good, this is a good option.
J T M.
I'm loving this Proof Maple Bacon. It's made life way easier to mix a good, refreshing drink in the evenings to forget about everything going on.
Richard P.
I’m enjoying the syrup. I just expected more bacon flavor and was disappointed. Otherwise it has a nice taste and makes a good old fashion.
Monty B.
I tried the Proof Maple Bacon Old Fashion syrup and truly was impressed.
It tasted like a local bartender made it from scratch.
I will use it frequently...loved it.
Scott J.
We have yet to receive this order (#18484). I checked with fedex (tracking number 61290988061522003456) and the shipment was damaged and cannot be delivered. They stated to check with shipper/merchant. I emailed you yesterday and today and no one has reached out to us yet. I do not have a product and cannot continue to make the cocktails we have at our distillery due to this (I asked in my first email to either have another two bottles shipped ASAP or to refund our money). If we do not hear back soon, we will stop payment on our credit card and we will not be able to use you moving forward.
Matthew R.
neither of the maple bacon syrups had even a hint of maple or bacon; they were tasty standard old fashioned syrups to be sure, with strong orange overtones, but absolutely not bacon or maple. Disappointing!
Andrew L.
I took this with us to visit friends on a cabin trip, we all thoroughly enjoyed our drinks!
Felipe U.
I don’t know why I ordered this!
Thomas R.
No maple or bacon flavor at all. Tasted like simple syrup. Very disappointing.
Hiep V.
Proof syrup is probably the quickest and easiest way to enjoy a high-quality Old Fashion at home. Like they recommend, adjust the concentration to your liking. I love it, and I look forward to making many Old Fashions to come!
Robert R.
Excellent with Jack Daniels!
Carol S.
My go to drink is an Old-fashioned and this is a great addition. Love it.
Kelly E.
Very tasty but no hint on bacon. Made a tasty drink but nothing unique
Tina C.
I love just a plain Old Fashion with the Maple Bacon. I have shared some of the syrup with my friends and they love it also. One of the guys is going to add it to his Rib Rub!
Brett E.
I have tried a few of the Old Fashioned mixes and I really like Maple/Bacon. It has become my go to.
Donna J.
Was really looking forward to this as my son loves bacon and whiskey. We were all a little disappointed in the lack of flavor. No maple or bacon scent or flavor in the drink
Frederick A.
Really not a bad syrup, but I didn't taste anything that even remotely resembled bacon.
Casey A.
Pairs greatly with Evan Williams
Shannon T.
This was a birthday gift for my son and he really enjoyed it!!
Michael A. C.
It was so tasty! Changed the way I drink Old Fashions.
Patricia A.
Extremely disappointed in this product. The combination of maple, bourbon and bacon sounded wonderful, and it was really looking forward to giving it a try. I don't know if I got a mislabled bottle, but I opened the bottle of the Maple Bacon syrup and got...orange? No Maple or bacon aroma, but I pressed on and added it to bourbon - maybe the alcohol would bring the flavor out, but no. Nothing. Just a very sweet Old Fashioned. Not at all what I was hoping for, and I bought the 3 flavor package. Very, very disappointed.
Joseph A.
Perfect ratio in one bottle for old fashioneds!
Michael K.
The mixer is fine, but I don’t taste ANY bacon flavor, at all. Not even a remote hint of bacon flavor to be found.
It’s a bit pricey for what it is. Having bacon in the name is very misleading.
Thomas S.
Maple Bacon is such a great taste for Old Fashioned cocktails.
Charles .
This stuff is the best yet!! Love it with Woodford or even Longbranch; but, the other two flavors are just as good too!! I like bacon..........
Bill W.
Good flavor, I now have all three! Unfortunately the make bacon flavor is very subtle, hard to find. Still good though.

Joanne B.
Simply delicious! I watched my brother-in-law make Old Fashions from scratch for years & thought thay were too much work. Proof has made them one step and simply delicious.
Jon C.
Super convenient and taste of a quality old fashioned but rather light on the maple bacon flavor. Either my bottle was mislabeled or they only use a hint of either flavor, however even as a regular old fashioned it makes a good old fashioned when your in a rush and don't have time to muddle one together yourself.
Nicholas R.
Absolutely delicious!
Lauren V.
All of them are delicious! Works great with Bourbon, orange bitters and slice of orange! My favorite!
Ricky G.
It tastes Great. My new favorite drink
Adam C.
Good stuff
Jessica W.
It made for a tasty drink but tastes like neither bacon nor maple.
tim r.
Cant taste the bacon but is is great.
Greg G.
Stuff is good but might take some playing around to get it how you like it. I did the 1/2oz to 2oz ratio and it was almost too sweet
Tanja K.
I am enjoying this Proof very much! It adds great flavor and is the perfect addition to a good Old Fashion. I will definitely be a continued shopper!
Melanie M.
This Maple Bacon syrup makes a fabulous Manhattan. It has become a special cocktail here.
Richard D.
Well aware that it's syrup, and therefore by definition, sweet, but I could definitely do with even more bacon flavor. Here, I'm faking it with a couple dashes of hickory smoked salt, but I've also used Peychaud's or Angostura bitters to cut the sweetness. With more time, I have baked bacon steaks from The Baconer and used them as garnish. (https://thebaconer.com/blogs/recipes-with-bacon/the-baconer-maple-old-fashioned)
Michael J.
The bottle was leaking when it arrived and it tasted funny so I threw it out. I don’t really know how it’s suppose to taste.
Scott M.
I was honestly expecting a bit more to be honest. While the mix was tasty, neither the maple or (especially) the bacon shown through. Perhaps I received an odd batch?
Scott McGlone

Michael B.
Usually a vodka tonic...now I have a new favorite.
Kevin R.
I wrote a review on your Facebook page. Let me know if any place else would be helpful.
Jason S.
I tried it first with standard Knob Creek and it was ok but the maple flavor didn’t really shine through. Now with the Smoked Maple Knob Creek its a tad sweet but the flavors really shine through. I’d buy again.
Greg G.
Makes it simple to make a delicious old fashioned in minutes. I added it to my drink mixer iPad thing so I can get the proportions correct every time. Highly recommend.
Tyler G.
Really missed any maple or bacon in my batch. I was pretty disappointed. This one tastes a lot like the pecan minus the pecan flavor. Main reason I bought all 3 maybe I just got a bad bottle. Still very fresh citrus flavors just more lemon than orange to the pecan and maple bacon.
Paul M.
Love the taste of a evening drink!
Frank F.
I’ve been tinkering with my formula for the best old fashioned to suit my taste. I’ve honed it down with Proof Syrup. Great product....thanks.

Saturday afternoon Happy Hour. Proof makes staying at home much more “spirited.”
gretchen b.
We had a lot of fun with this one! Not only did we make candied bacon to go with these fantastic cocktails, I made special home made truffles with orange and maple extracts mixed with liquid smoke and garnished with, you guessed it, candied bacon. And together these two were quite the pair, especially by the fire :) Everybody loves them. Enjoy the mental experience and have a great summer ;)
Candace K.
Delicious. Great addition to an old fashioned
jeffrey j.
Seems just a little milder than original. I get no hints of maple or bacon
C. Heath H.
Flavor is good, convenience is excellent. I wish there was more bacon flavor. I can't really taste it. I'm going to try Pecan next time.
Julia K.
I sent this as a gift to a dear friend --- the thank you note I received said they were blown away when they made a drink!
Sharon O.
Smoky sweetness adds a special depth to your cocktail.
Julia C.
Slight maple flavor. No detectable bacon flavor whatsoever.
David W.
This is our Terrace overlooking the ocean. Normally there would be two old fashions on the table but we ran out of Proof!! Our next order should be arriving in two days!!
You absolutely positively made us believers! Love this product!!
Benjamin S.
Thus is the maple bacon. Its so good!
Elizabeth .
Awesome!!
Benjamin H.
The maple bacon proof is perfect, however, the bottle arrived with a very small hairline crack and it slowly leaks onto my counter. I realized this after i went to pick it up one night and it was stuck to the counter. Other than slowly losing the goods it’s a great product. I wish i had another bottle to transfer it to though so i could save it.
Rick B.
My experience with Proof Syrup was excellent.
The finished product was so good.
I liked the consistency of each drink
I am making quality drinks every time

Wow! Created a Benton’s Old Fashioned. Fat washed Four Roses Small Batch using Benton’s Bacon. 1z bacon fat to 12.5oz Four Roses.
Benton Old Fashioned:
1z Fat Washed Bourbon, ,1oz non fat washed, 1/2Z Proof Maple Bacon. Orange twist.
Richard R.
It made a great Old Fashioned, but I didn’t really get any real taste or smell of smoke, bacon or maple. It was labeled as such, but I wonder if it was incorrectly labeled and I actually got the plain version. Thanks.
Richard Rusche
Gina B.
Purchased for hubby who loves the taste and convenience of Proof!
Fancy Cocktails Can Be Easy.
This is as easy as it gets.
The Old Fashioned can be complicated and time consuming. Proof Syrup takes the hassle out of your perfect Old Fashioned and puts the fun back into entertaining. Nobody wants to spend all their time behind the bar peeling, muddling and measuring.
All you have to do now is pour and mix to get the perfect Old Fashioned—every time. So simple, the hardest part is picking your favorite bourbon.
Now drink.

C. Heath H.
Flavor is good, convenience is excellent. I wish there was more bacon flavor. I can't really taste it. I'm going to try Pecan next time.
Julia K.
I sent this as a gift to a dear friend --- the thank you note I received said they were blown away when they made a drink!
Sharon O.
Smoky sweetness adds a special depth to your cocktail.
Julia C.
Slight maple flavor. No detectable bacon flavor whatsoever.
David W.
This is our Terrace overlooking the ocean. Normally there would be two old fashions on the table but we ran out of Proof!! Our next order should be arriving in two days!!
You absolutely positively made us believers! Love this product!!
Benjamin S.
Thus is the maple bacon. Its so good!
Elizabeth .
Awesome!!
Benjamin H.
The maple bacon proof is perfect, however, the bottle arrived with a very small hairline crack and it slowly leaks onto my counter. I realized this after i went to pick it up one night and it was stuck to the counter. Other than slowly losing the goods it’s a great product. I wish i had another bottle to transfer it to though so i could save it.
Rick B.
My experience with Proof Syrup was excellent.
The finished product was so good.
I liked the consistency of each drink
I am making quality drinks every time

Dangerously delicious!

Wow! Created a Benton’s Old Fashioned. Fat washed Four Roses Small Batch using Benton’s Bacon. 1z bacon fat to 12.5oz Four Roses.
Benton Old Fashioned:
1z Fat Washed Bourbon, ,1oz non fat washed, 1/2Z Proof Maple Bacon. Orange twist.
Richard R.
It made a great Old Fashioned, but I didn’t really get any real taste or smell of smoke, bacon or maple. It was labeled as such, but I wonder if it was incorrectly labeled and I actually got the plain version. Thanks.

Basil Hayden Bourbon + Ice + Maple Bacon Proof Syrup = HEAVEN
Mark S.
In truth, I had a hard time distinguishing between the traditional and maple bacon flavors. I first ordered the traditional (loved it), then the maple bacon, but couldn't detect much of a difference. Proof was super gracious in sending me another, free bottle of the maple bacon syrup in case, for some unlikely reason, my first bottle was mislabled. I suppose I have a dull palate, because I still couldn't detect much of a difference, but in the end it was inconsequential, because both are delicious. And I was super impressed with the support from this company.
Ronald B.
Could not get my old fashion to taste like I get in bars. That is till I tried Proof! Love it!
Michael .
I bought all three. Yum, yum and yum
Jim G.
This syrup lives up to expectations and is a welcome change to my already outstanding Old Fashioned. I use it in my morning homemade cold brew coffee as well. It’s probably good in strong hot coffee too!
chad B.
Never received the 3 I ordered. Emailed 3 times with no response. Horrible customer experience. I waited 4 days before doing this review and still haven't heard back. By the way I ordered these over 3 weeks ago.
Bobby V.
It’s just ok.....
Michael W.
It’s good, but I think there could be a little more maple and bacon flavor as it wasn’t very noticeable. Additionally, adding the syrup to just the alcohol leaves you with a syrupy, 2.5 oz drink, so you need to add some white soda or seltzer to make a regular-sized old-fashioned.
Diane C.
My grandmother’s favorite cocktail was the Old Fashion. My cousins and I recently went on a trip and roasted her with Old Fashions at the Biltmore. We’ve been trying to recreate it at home. The Proof Maple Bacon is so yummy and easy!
Jennifer C.
Proof syrup has arrived! Cracked it open tonight & both my husband and I are blown away - great stuff! Maple Bacon for the win!! Next order is definitely going to be the Pecan... Stay tuned.
Kaitlin M.
Really great quality and flavor. However, I was a little disappointed that you don't get a huge amount of "bacon" flavor; it is more a subtle smokiness from what I imagine would be the bacon. Maple is delicious and definitely present. Overall would order again but much more subtle than expected.
Scott N.
It’s a good mixer. I was just expecting more of a bacon flavor like Smokey or salty and this did not have it.
Jim G.
By nature, I am a bourbon drinker but this tequila cocktail called my name. It was perfect for cutting the humidity and delicious.
Elvia R.
I bought the Proof Maple Bacon Syrup for my son's 24th birthday and it was a big hit. The guys absolutely loved the flavor and the ease in making their Old Fashioned drinks. Will definitely buy it again!
karen m.
I have always loved Old Fashions, but they were a treat I would have out.
Now I can have them at home.......talk about a treat!
Kevin N.
I tried the Maple Bacon Proof Syrup and I loved it! Very tasty and so simple to make a great Old Fashioned every time!
Kenneth B.
I did an ultimate bacon buy infusing my bourbon with bacon at it was Great.
Also used a straight rye regular as the recipe on the bottle and was Great as well.
Jim M.
Ordered it two weeks ago and still haven’t received it. Reached out to support last week and still haven’t gotten a response yet.
Mark S.
Great Cocktails thanks
Todd W.
I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to make a perfect Old Fashioned every time with Proof!
Craig M.
Not tasting the maple or bacon. It’s good, just not tasting the difference between this and traditional.
Joseph C.
Best Damn Cocktail syrup ever!
Adam B.
Awesome mix. I was really visit at at first but it had me a first sip!
Kyle H.
I ordered a bottle as a gift for a client. The package arrived with a cracked cap that had some leakage down the side. I emailed the company to request a return and refund. Without asking, they just said we have shipped a new bottle. I replied and said that I don’t want a new one, it’s a gift- I Would just like to return and get a refund. Their response was this is what we do for damaged product. I screen shot a section of the website that reads “ We offer a 100% Happiness Guarantee! Let us know how we can help by email us at support@proofsyrup.com.“. Their response was “ Fair enough. If you honestly don't find your Proof delicious, let us know and we'll refund it and you can keep it too.” I do not drink, and I’m vegetarian. I have no use for a bacon syrup. I explained this to them and they said just to return the new bottle that they sent (without me asking) and they would issue a refund. When I asked about a return shipping label, they said we do not offer shipping labels for undamaged product! That was 7/26. I have emailed them on 7/26, 7/29, 7/31, 8/4 and today 8/7 with no response. They know they are wrong and are hoping I just forget so they don’t have to deal with their mistake.
Do not support this company.
Raymond N.
Great syrup!
Grace K.
Rich smooth taste that didn’t over power my good bourbon. Both Pecan and Maple Bacon were great.
Robert G.
It was surprisingly good especially with the orange peal! Have continued to sample for three days now...hahaha! Not a strong bacon taste or flaver and somewhat sweet. Am awaiting a different arrival to compare it too! Either way it is very good and a nice surprise!

Greg R.
Absolutely amazing! My friends and I (made the mistake of letting them try it)went through a bottle of bourbon in record time! Highly recommend
Paul D.
What a phenomenal addition to my bar. I'm a bourbon guy ... the best of the best ... and this Maple bacon flavored was a perfect complement to my Angel's Envy. Added 2 Luxardo cherries for good measure and well, I'm a happy guy. Cheers!
Mike T.
Tasted as advertised. Not cloying or overpowered, but you definitely get the smoky bacon and sweet syrup hints. You could get the same effect for about 1/10 the price by making bacon-infused bourbon and then mixing some maple syrup into your standard simple syrup. But that is a fair amount of work, so if you just want something easy that you won't have to experiment with and you know will turn out good, this is a good option.
J T M.
I'm loving this Proof Maple Bacon. It's made life way easier to mix a good, refreshing drink in the evenings to forget about everything going on.
Richard P.
I’m enjoying the syrup. I just expected more bacon flavor and was disappointed. Otherwise it has a nice taste and makes a good old fashion.
Monty B.
I tried the Proof Maple Bacon Old Fashion syrup and truly was impressed.
It tasted like a local bartender made it from scratch.
I will use it frequently...loved it.
Scott J.
We have yet to receive this order (#18484). I checked with fedex (tracking number 61290988061522003456) and the shipment was damaged and cannot be delivered. They stated to check with shipper/merchant. I emailed you yesterday and today and no one has reached out to us yet. I do not have a product and cannot continue to make the cocktails we have at our distillery due to this (I asked in my first email to either have another two bottles shipped ASAP or to refund our money). If we do not hear back soon, we will stop payment on our credit card and we will not be able to use you moving forward.
Matthew R.
neither of the maple bacon syrups had even a hint of maple or bacon; they were tasty standard old fashioned syrups to be sure, with strong orange overtones, but absolutely not bacon or maple. Disappointing!
Andrew L.
I took this with us to visit friends on a cabin trip, we all thoroughly enjoyed our drinks!
Felipe U.
I don’t know why I ordered this!
Thomas R.
No maple or bacon flavor at all. Tasted like simple syrup. Very disappointing.
Hiep V.
Proof syrup is probably the quickest and easiest way to enjoy a high-quality Old Fashion at home. Like they recommend, adjust the concentration to your liking. I love it, and I look forward to making many Old Fashions to come!
Robert R.
Excellent with Jack Daniels!
Carol S.
My go to drink is an Old-fashioned and this is a great addition. Love it.
Kelly E.
Very tasty but no hint on bacon. Made a tasty drink but nothing unique
Tina C.
I love just a plain Old Fashion with the Maple Bacon. I have shared some of the syrup with my friends and they love it also. One of the guys is going to add it to his Rib Rub!
Brett E.
I have tried a few of the Old Fashioned mixes and I really like Maple/Bacon. It has become my go to.
Donna J.
Was really looking forward to this as my son loves bacon and whiskey. We were all a little disappointed in the lack of flavor. No maple or bacon scent or flavor in the drink
Frederick A.
Really not a bad syrup, but I didn't taste anything that even remotely resembled bacon.
Casey A.
Pairs greatly with Evan Williams
Shannon T.
This was a birthday gift for my son and he really enjoyed it!!
Michael A. C.
It was so tasty! Changed the way I drink Old Fashions.
Patricia A.
Extremely disappointed in this product. The combination of maple, bourbon and bacon sounded wonderful, and it was really looking forward to giving it a try. I don't know if I got a mislabled bottle, but I opened the bottle of the Maple Bacon syrup and got...orange? No Maple or bacon aroma, but I pressed on and added it to bourbon - maybe the alcohol would bring the flavor out, but no. Nothing. Just a very sweet Old Fashioned. Not at all what I was hoping for, and I bought the 3 flavor package. Very, very disappointed.
Joseph A.
Perfect ratio in one bottle for old fashioneds!
Michael K.
The mixer is fine, but I don’t taste ANY bacon flavor, at all. Not even a remote hint of bacon flavor to be found.
It’s a bit pricey for what it is. Having bacon in the name is very misleading.
Thomas S.
Maple Bacon is such a great taste for Old Fashioned cocktails.
Charles .
This stuff is the best yet!! Love it with Woodford or even Longbranch; but, the other two flavors are just as good too!! I like bacon..........
Bill W.
Good flavor, I now have all three! Unfortunately the make bacon flavor is very subtle, hard to find. Still good though.

Simply delicious! I watched my brother-in-law make Old Fashions from scratch for years & thought thay were too much work. Proof has made them one step and simply delicious.
Jon C.
Super convenient and taste of a quality old fashioned but rather light on the maple bacon flavor. Either my bottle was mislabeled or they only use a hint of either flavor, however even as a regular old fashioned it makes a good old fashioned when your in a rush and don't have time to muddle one together yourself.
Nicholas R.
Absolutely delicious!
Lauren V.
All of them are delicious! Works great with Bourbon, orange bitters and slice of orange! My favorite!
Ricky G.
It tastes Great. My new favorite drink
Adam C.
Good stuff
Jessica W.
It made for a tasty drink but tastes like neither bacon nor maple.
tim r.
Cant taste the bacon but is is great.
Greg G.
Stuff is good but might take some playing around to get it how you like it. I did the 1/2oz to 2oz ratio and it was almost too sweet
Tanja K.
I am enjoying this Proof very much! It adds great flavor and is the perfect addition to a good Old Fashion. I will definitely be a continued shopper!
Melanie M.
This Maple Bacon syrup makes a fabulous Manhattan. It has become a special cocktail here.
Richard D.
Well aware that it's syrup, and therefore by definition, sweet, but I could definitely do with even more bacon flavor. Here, I'm faking it with a couple dashes of hickory smoked salt, but I've also used Peychaud's or Angostura bitters to cut the sweetness. With more time, I have baked bacon steaks from The Baconer and used them as garnish. (https://thebaconer.com/blogs/recipes-with-bacon/the-baconer-maple-old-fashioned)
Michael J.
The bottle was leaking when it arrived and it tasted funny so I threw it out. I don’t really know how it’s suppose to taste.
Scott M.
I was honestly expecting a bit more to be honest. While the mix was tasty, neither the maple or (especially) the bacon shown through. Perhaps I received an odd batch?
Scott McGlone
terrie e.
Good but very little bacon flavor.
Michael B.
Usually a vodka tonic...now I have a new favorite.
Kevin R.
I wrote a review on your Facebook page. Let me know if any place else would be helpful.
Jason S.
I tried it first with standard Knob Creek and it was ok but the maple flavor didn’t really shine through. Now with the Smoked Maple Knob Creek its a tad sweet but the flavors really shine through. I’d buy again.
Greg G.
Makes it simple to make a delicious old fashioned in minutes. I added it to my drink mixer iPad thing so I can get the proportions correct every time. Highly recommend.
Tyler G.
Really missed any maple or bacon in my batch. I was pretty disappointed. This one tastes a lot like the pecan minus the pecan flavor. Main reason I bought all 3 maybe I just got a bad bottle. Still very fresh citrus flavors just more lemon than orange to the pecan and maple bacon.
Paul M.
Love the taste of a evening drink!
Frank F.
I’ve been tinkering with my formula for the best old fashioned to suit my taste. I’ve honed it down with Proof Syrup. Great product....thanks.
Kenna W.
One of the best Old Fashions I've had! I would highly recommend this!
Janet W.
Saturday afternoon Happy Hour. Proof makes staying at home much more “spirited.”
gretchen b.
We had a lot of fun with this one! Not only did we make candied bacon to go with these fantastic cocktails, I made special home made truffles with orange and maple extracts mixed with liquid smoke and garnished with, you guessed it, candied bacon. And together these two were quite the pair, especially by the fire :) Everybody loves them. Enjoy the mental experience and have a great summer ;)
Candace K.
Delicious. Great addition to an old fashioned
