Mastic gum, also known as the "tears of Chios," is derived primarily from the Greek island of Chios, where the mastic tree flourishes due to the island's specific climate and soil composition. The harvesting process is meticulous, necessitating precise incisions in the tree's bark to release the resin, which then solidifies into transparent droplets known as "tears."
