Mastic flows drop by drop, like a tear, on the land of Chios. For centuries, the resinous juice that comes exclusively from the trunk & branches of the mastic tree in South Chios, has given us its unique taste and distinct aroma.

Stoupakis distillery gathered all this by creating 100% from the distillation of "OMIRIKO" mastic liqueur. Keeping the tradition and keeping unchanged the characteristics of mastic, the liqueur "OMIRIKO" offers a unique taste pleasure. Enjoy it chilled or in a cocktail.

Mastic is the resin produced by the mastic trees that thrive only in Chios. Chios is the only place on the planet where authentic mastic is produced. From the 5th century BC in Ancient Greece, Chios mastic was mentioned by Herodotus and Hippocrates for its medicinal use. It was also used throughout Roman and Ottoman times as a medicine, as chewing gum, as a breath freshener and cleanser, or simply as a sweet. Even today it remains particularly well known for its healing properties, Mastic is the essence and soul of this liqueur.
