Real mastic is nothing like regular gum, and the first chew surprises almost everyone. Here is what to expect.
It starts firm and crumbly. Take a piece or two and start chewing. For the first 30 to 60 seconds it will feel brittle and may break apart. Keep going. The warmth of your mouth softens the resin into a smooth, firm chewing gum.
The taste is natural, not candy. Expect pine, eucalyptus, and cedar notes. The Premium Pack has a smokier, richer flavor from pine pollen. Cherry Jawline Gum adds natural cherry flavor. Most people need a week or two for the taste to grow on them, and then it really grows on them.
It is a workout. Mastic is firmer than regular gum by design. If your jaw gets tired at first, chew for shorter sessions and build up over time.
You can re-chew it. Mastic can be chewed more than once. Save your piece in our reusable gum tin and it will last twice as long.
