About the product
Raw medium-sized mastic tears from the Greek island of Chios with a characteristic aroma and flavour. Pure resin without additives, ideal for daily chewing and for use in the kitchen.
Mastic gum is the natural resin of the lentisk tree (Pistacia lentiscus var. Chia), which grows in the south of the Greek island of Chios. The resin flows from cuts in the bark and hardens in the air into drops – tears. Chios mastic carries the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), and the traditional method of its cultivation is inscribed on the UNESCO list.
Medium tears have been prized for centuries for their unique flavour and versatile uses. Chewing mastic gum freshens the breath and is a traditional part of oral care.
