Mastiha is produced by nature, and is found exclusively in Chios; one of the biggest islands in the North-eastern Aegean Sea. Based on historical records, the medieval settlements in Chios were named ‘Mastihohoria” meaning “Mastiha villages”. The product itself originates from Mastic Trees, via the collection of sap from the tree bark. Ancient Greeks extensively used Mastiha for its majestic aroma and flavour , and also for general health and cosmetic care, as well as in the food industry. Mastiha is historically renowned as an overall well being and rare product. RUNade Mastiha Gum carries the tradition, the values and the secret of the ancient civilisation which has stood the test of time.
