Mastic (Roman): Overview
Mastic, often referred to as Roman Mastic or Mastiha, is a natural resin obtained from the bark of the Pistacia lentiscus tree, native to the Mediterranean region, particularly the Greek island of Chios. Traditionally used since Roman times, this aromatic resin has been valued for its culinary, medicinal, and cosmetic properties. When chewed, mastic softens into a gum with a refreshing pine-like flavor, aiding digestion and freshening breath.In ancient Roman culture, it was prized as a mouth freshener and digestive aid, often incorporated into wines and medicinal concoctions. Modern uses include flavoring for sweets, liqueurs, toothpaste, and skincare products. Scientifically, mastic is known for its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and stomach-soothing benefits. The resin is typically harvested by carefully scoring the bark, allowing tear-shaped drops to harden and be collected. Mastic continues to be treasured for its unique aroma, therapeutic qualities, and historical significance in Mediterranean wellness traditions.
