I have a neighbor with two decent size trees that must be this type, was thinking of asking to tap them - sure they would allow, but it seems the opinion here is mixed. I don't know if I want to experiment with a small, tiny batch, but it probably would be simple enough in the kitchen in a skillet to boil down a quart, see what you get?
Any follow up before I do that?
2014 Year 1, 1 large front yard shade tree with 3 taps - 3 quarts of the best syrup I ever had.
2015 - Convince In-laws and Neighbors, bought F-150 and bricks. 20 taps, 4 gallons in pretty bottles.
2016 -- More friends and neighbors, should add another 20 +, built temporary shelter as sugar shack. F150 traded for Ram 2500. Big Blue new barrels for 116 gal storage. 8 gallons Syrup.
2017 - Mortared Brick Arch with serving pans, no make that an 18 x 48 CDL divided flat pan, 48 taps.
