The Mastic Tears of Chios
At the heart of this herbal tea is the resin of the mastic tree, which is exclusively found on the Greek island of Chios. This resin, also known as "tears of Chios," has been prized for its therapeutic properties since ancient times. The mastic resin is believed to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties, making it an excellent addition to any health-conscious diet.
Soothing Chamomile and Aromatic Mahlepi
In addition to the mastic tears, this tea blend also contains chamomile flowers from the Magnesia region of Greece and mahlepi. Chamomile is known for its calming and soothing properties, making it an excellent choice for those looking to unwind after a long day. Meanwhile, mahlepi adds an aromatic, slightly sweet flavor to the tea, making it a truly unique taste experience.
