Many of my customers like the look of a clear glass bottle. I get the pint size jugs for something like 2.50 a piece maybe through leader evaporator. I think mason jars are good for low cost option but I think most people would be willing to pay a couple extra dollars for the upgrade. I also love the maple leaf shaped bottles, if you have perfectly filtered syrup then you just can't beat the beauty of one of those bottles. Sure they cost almost $7 each just for the bottle (bunch of sizes) but they make awesome gifts, I usually sell the 1.5pt for $25, and the 1pt for $20. But all that said do what works for you or at the very least do a sample test of a dozen of each and see If you sell them. I found that my customers prefer the smaller bottles so that's what I generally buy more of.
