The tree flourishes throughout the island of Chios, especially in the southern part. The ’tears’ of resin exuded from the tree are set and dry on exposure to air to form mastic. Mastic has been used for more than 2,500 years as a traditional Greek medicine for treating several conditions, such as stomach and peptic ulcers. The great historian Herodotus (5th century BC) wrote that the Greeks used to chew the dried resinous liquid flowing from the mastic tree bark.
