Mastiha Chios 25 G - Organic Mastic Gum - 100% Natural Gluten-Free Greek Chios Mastic Gum, Mastiha Tears Gum, Kitchen Use Natural Mastic Gum, Pure Vegan Mastica from Greek Farmers

It's a bit stiff to start but it softens nicely just enough to exercise the jaws. With a pleasant taste and an easily resealable package, it serves well.

Excellent quality and clean, I love the flavor and aroma of this Mastiha It is also very clean.

It didn't cure my guts but it is decent weird sap gum and I think it might bw helping a little bit. It's flavor is medicinal and weird. It takes a while to ship but it seems to be good quality. It does NOT melt in coffee (stuck on mug and spoon!). It DOES melt if you put a small amount in chili and simmer it for an hour (it seemed to dissolve entirely). It chews HARD and you could hurt your teeth or your jaws if you aren't careful! I bit my lips/cheeks crazy hard more than once the firsty try, so take it easy because it's definitely not bubble gum! It will shatter if you drink something cold, which is neat and might help if you get any stuck in your teeth. I don't dislike this but I'm not sure if these "tears" are the correct form of this stuff for me. Your milage may vary.UPDATE: I saw baking recipes online and tried grinding a little (1/4 tsp) in a mortar and pestle and adding it to sugar cookie dough to test flavor. When I chewed a (gross tasting) cookie the hardened tree resin, which had melted into the cookies, shattered and lacerated the inside of my mouth and my entire digestive system. It has been more than 24 hours since that cookie and I am not sure the bleeding is over yet. This stuff is extremely dangerous but the internet will lead you to believe otherwise.⚠️USE EXTREME CAUTION⚠️

I really don't know what some of the reviewers were talking about. This isn't sticky at all. If it has some medicinal properties then it is worth chewing, otherwise I don't really get it. It's basically small card pellets, and when you start chewing they coalesce into a small firm mass. The taste is a little like tree sap but it dissipates. It then chews like a very firm gum. I find if I chew too long I get a bit of a stomach ache. Maybe it promotes too much stomach acid..

I don't know how these are supposed to taste, but they're not bad. They're not great either. They're just kind of there and something to chew on. You have to take a lot of the little lumps of sap at once. Healthier than regular gum.After about an hour of chewing the sap gets realllly hard and becomes unchewable.

After using Falim for a year or two I wanted something slightly more natural. Heard about mastic tree gum and bought this.This is expensive, but a single piece can last you a really long time and by goodness, this is the toughest (and most enjoyable) gum I've ever had. Note: when you open the package, they are very small "pebbles" that feel somewhat hard. Put a small handful in your mouth and let them sit for 20 seconds before chewing so they soften up from your saliva first.Chewing hard stuff is really good for jaw & facial development. It's a myth that it damages teeth. As long as you aren't chewing literal rocks, it actually makes your teeth stronger over time.

it works ! not a bad taste at all - chewed for 20 minutes and tossed it in the garbage when I was done

I’m sure that the quality and everything was excellent on this gum but what many people don’t realize is that the flavor of it is not very pleasing, I would put the flavor somewhere between and weird herbal tea and sap.
