The Steens cane syrup is as close as I can get to the stuff our neighbor made many years ago.
This stuff (ribbon cane syrup) was made in a three cylinder mill the next place down from us turned by an old mule.
My last quart jar lasted about 18 years or more, I cant remember now it has been so long ago.
Frank Bridges bought it in 1977 and gave1/2 gallon of it back to me in 84 and I used it up in 2000 something in the house I am in now.
What ever how long that was.
Just checked, the stuff was 28 years old.
Frank by the way came to Texas in a covered wagon as a little boy was retired Army and served in WWII AND Korea.
