For over 300 years the inhabitants of the enchanting and beautiful island of Chios in the Aegean sea have collected the tears of the Mastiha tree. The real Mastiha, the magic ingredient of Skinos Mastiha Spirit, is found only on this Greek island. Long considered a truly precious commodity, its healing properties have been appreciated for centuries.
Since 600 BC, the mastiha was the secret ingredient of a distillate that traveled through the ancient world, and began to be used as a delicious and effective digestive. Today, Skinos continues the tradition and remains the only distillate of mastiha in the world.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
