Discover a true Kentucky treasure. Oberholtzer’s Sweet Sorghum is a taste of heritage, crafted with time-honored methods passed down through generations. Unlike molasses, which is a byproduct of sugar refining, our sorghum is made by pressing the sweet juice from the stalks of the sorghum plant and carefully cooking it down into a rich, amber syrup. The result is a unique flavor that’s both sweet and slightly earthy, with a hint of caramel and a whisper of smokiness.
Every small batch is a testament to pure, simple quality. The Oberholtzer family takes pride in creating a syrup that’s as honest as the land it comes from. The texture is smooth and velvety—thicker than maple syrup but more pourable than molasses—making it wonderfully versatile in the kitchen.
Bring a touch of Southern comfort to your table. A drizzle over hot, buttered biscuits or fluffy pancakes is a classic, but the possibilities are endless. Stir it into baked beans or BBQ sauce for a deep, smoky sweetness, use it to glaze a holiday ham, or whisk it into your morning granola. It’s the secret ingredient you’ll soon find you can’t live without.

Our shipping schedule is Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM, using UPS Ground Service as our primary shipping method. We strive to ship orders the same day. Orders placed after 2 pm EST may ship the following day.
While we aim to ship all orders the same day, items like chocolates, pies, and cakes require extra care. During the hot summer months (June-September, sometimes October) we avoid shipping these perishable items on Fridays, and occasionally on Thursdays.This varies based on temperatures and distance.
This precaution ensures that these delicate items do not sit in hot UPS vans or warehouses over the weekend, when shipments are not actively moving. Any orders we hold for this reason will be shipped the following Monday, unless it's a holiday.
