Skinos Mastiha Spirit Greece. The country of Greece is known for the Olympic Games, the Parthenon and hundreds of beautiful scenic islands, Plato,and so much more. Outside of Greece little was known about the mysterious Mastiha tree. The Mastiha shrub grows throughout the Mediterranean region, but – believe it or not – only the trees on the island of Chios weep the resin from which the legendary mastic spice is obtained. LuxuriousDrinks  is proud to introduce Skinos, a unique new liqueur made from Mastiha exclusively from Greece and available for all people who like cocktails or equally great, a nice zip of the Skinos Drink after dinner is proberly the best treat you can have. 

The clear spirit comes in a chunky bottle whose frosted-glass design features a clear glass window through which you can see the word Skinos on the inside of the back of the bottle. Skinos is made from the aromatic resin collected from mastiha, or mastic, trees on the island of Chios, which like many other Greek islands lies close to the west coast of Turkey. Skinos is the ancient name for mastiha.

The word Skinos is the ancient name for Mastiha. Skinos liqueur is flowery and delicately sweet. Its apperance is similar to Ouzo but it tastes nothing like it.
Skinos can be kept in the freezer and consumed ice cold, in a shot glass with a tangerine wedge or mixed into a cocktail. Skinos is best enjoyed slowly and savored.
The mastiha tree a member of the pistachio family and its Latin name is pistachio lentiscus. Though the mastiha shrub grows throughout the Mediterranean region, only the trees in southern Chios weep the resin from which the mastic, or masticha, spice is obtained. The mastic gum is produced by a cooperative of medieval villages in southern Chios. The exclusivity of the mastic gum source has led to the European Union granting the production of the spice in Chios a protected designation of origin (PDO) and a protected geographical indication (PGI) name.
It can be drunk ice-cold or at room temperature.
