Kahiltna Birchworks is a family run Alaskan business - a true cottage industry and Alaskas largest producer of pure Alaska birch syrup. Alaska birch syrup is one of the rarest gourmet food products in the world, and one of the most difficult to produce. (see About Birch Syrup). Dulce Ben-East, Michael East, and partner, Sally Freund have operated the Alaskan sugarbush, producing pure birch syrup, at the East Homestead - 35 miles off the Alaska road system at Quiet Lake - since 1990. Dulce and Michael have aptly named their birch syrup Kahiltna Gold. Kahiltna is an Athabascan word meaning from the source. The Source refers to Denali,also an Athabascan word, meaning the great one. The birch trees from which the Easts draw sap for their birch syrup obtain their water from this source. This source, so far from human habitation, is pure and clean - as is the air, making Kahiltna Gold pure birch syrup free of pesticides, herbicides, and other pollutants.
