This mastic gum powder contains 100% original Chios mastic gum from Greece. Mastic is the resin of Greek pistachio trees (Pistacia lentiscus), which naturally contains valuable secondary phytochemicals such as resin acids, resins, terpenoids and essential oils that give it its distinctive scent. The phytochemical content in the resin is subject to continuous natural fluctuations as it is influenced by environmental conditions.

The harvesting process is carried out entirely by hand from June to September. Before harvesting, the soil is covered with a layer of calcium carbonate to protect the resin crystals, in turn accelerating the gentle air-drying process while ensuring the resin stays clear of impurities. The crystallised resin is then collected, sorted according to size and class and freeze-dried. Finally, the nutrient-rich resin is gently ground into a fine powder without the addition of any additives.

For the capsule shells we use custom-made HPMC capsules that, unlike most other HPMC and pullulan capsules on the market, are 100% free from controversial additives such as carrageenans and PEG. We then package this product in environmentally friendly amber glass.

Mastic Gum

Mastic is the resin of the pistachio tree (Pistacia lentiscus), an evergreen shrub that belongs to the sumac family (Anacardiaceae). The shrub or small tree usually reaches heights of 1-3m, but can grow up to 8m. The bark and branches of the pistachio trees are cut open (scarification) to allow the resin to slowly pour out. This process happens annually in June.

The Pistacia lentiscus variety grows exclusively on the Greek island of Chios in the Aegean Sea. "Mastic" means the tears of Chios. The traditional cultivation of mastic gum has been included in the intangible cultural heritage of humanity by UNESCO since 2014.
