Chios Mastiha is a unique product with many beneficial qualities and wide-ranging uses since antiquity. Nowadays, it is used in pharmaceuticals, perfumes, cosmetics, beverages, bakery goods, and sweets as well as in cooking.

Chios Mastiha is the natural resin of pistacia lentiscus var. Chia, a tree which grows only on the Aegean island of Chios, Greece. Scientific research shows that Chios Mastiha has anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, and healing activity. Also, it has beneficial effects on both body hygiene and skin care.

Chios Mastiha is the natural resin that is excreted from the trunk and branches of the plant "chinos" - the Greek name for the mastiha tree. By incising the bark with a sharp pointed instrument, mastiha appears in the incision in the form of tears and exudes in droplets onto the soil. While it is flowing, it is a gummy, transparent liquid, but in 15 days it solidifies in irregular shapes.This product is unique in the world because mastiha-yielding trees flourish only in a specific region of the island, the so-called Mastiha villages.Chios Mastiha has been identified as PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) in order to protect its unique place of origin. It is used in cooking, confectionery, beverage making, pharmaceutics and cosmetology. Its numerous beneficial properties for the human body makes it invaluable.


Mastiha is traditionally used as a means to relieve stomach problems. A recent study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, supports that mastiha contributes to a healthy gastrointestinal system. Inouline is a plant fiber from chicory roots and helps the development of beneficial intestinal bacteria (bifidus).

Mastic is a 100% natural product. That means that NOT all the pieces of mastic (or tears as they are called) are the same. Some pieces are bigger, some are smaller, some are harder and some are softer.

For gastrointestinal problems
In a bottle of 1/2 liter of water, add 2-3 medium pieces of mastic. We leave them all night and the next day, we drink until the water is over. The pieces of mastic can be chewed during the day. This mastic is very beneficial to the stomach and to the intestine.

Recipe for stomach ulcer
Drink every morning 1/2 teaspoon of mastic powder with 1/2 glass of water for 2 months or more if necessary
To use it, you need a mortar and pestle.
Do not pound mastiha in a spice grinder or food processor because its gummy, sticky nature will ruin the blades!
