Chios Mastic Natural Resin Gum Mastiha Oil Kaouris Powder Ground Tears/Grain 10g

Chios Mastic Natural Resin Gum Mastiha Oil Kaouris Powder Ground Tears/Grain (10g) is a high-quality, finely ground form of the mastic resin, which is harvested exclusively from the mastic trees on the island of Chios, Greece. This powder is made by grinding the crystallized mastic tears into a fine consistency, making it even more versatile for various culinary, medicinal, and cosmetic uses. Authentic & Natural: This mastic powder is 100% natural, derived from the resin of the mastic tree (Pistacia lentiscus), grown and harvested on the island of Chios, where mastiha production has been a tradition for thousands of years. The ground form offers the same unique flavor and properties as the whole mastic tears. Flavor Profile: Mastiha has a distinctive, refreshing, pine-like aroma with hints of vanilla, herbal notes, and subtle sweetness. When ground into a powder, the flavor is more easily dispersed in recipes, adding its signature taste to a wide variety of dishes, both sweet and savory. In cooking: Mastiha is commonly used in Greek and Mediterranean cuisine to flavor desserts (such as mastiha ice cream, cakes, and cookies), beverages (including mastiha liqueur), and even savory dishes. In beverages: It’s often infused in water, used to flavor syrups, or added to cocktails and spirits like ouzo. In traditional medicine: Mastiha is also known for its potential health benefits, such as promoting digestion and oral health. This 10g pack is a perfect way to experience the authentic taste and versatility of mastiha in its purest form. Whether you're using it in cooking, baking, or creating your own mastiha-based liqueur, it offers a truly unique and aromatic experience.
