Ive been chewing it for a week now. I like it. The flavour is subtle but long lasting. If you're uncertain of what to expect flavour wise, id compare it to Pine, Cedar, and a hint of licorice. Somehow I also want to say there is a cilantro type thing going on here too. Is mostly pine and cedar though. I've been chewing the piece in my mouth now for an hour and a half, and will probably continue for another hour or two. Good texture, it compels you to keep biting down. Can take some time to work into a wad of chewable gum. If it seems sticky work it into a good texture by chewing with your front teeth - quickly to minize context with teeth. Read more

This is terrible; it got stuck on my back tooth and was very hard to get rid of. I drank cold water to make it hard and remove it, but it was glued to my tooth. On top of that, it has a raw pine flavour, as if you cracked a leaf from a pine tree and chewed it. I had to wait for a long time before it melted and disappeared from my mouth. I do not recommend this tiny, pricy bag. I’m disappointed. I will stick to the pricey underbrush gum :( Read more

The product taste did last for about 3 hours but the gum got very sticky and didn't taste good at all and got into my eyebrow and there's a missing piece of my eyebrow because it was so sticky the taste was super bad and it got stuck to my teeth so I had to taste it for a long time Read more

I love this product! I've repurchased it the second I ran out and I will continue to do so. Great value for the price. the resin does tend to stick together so don't keep it in direct sunlight or in very humid environments. Depending on your individual need, mastic gum can be chewed as gum or used in powders, tinctures, and capsules. I have tried all the different ways but chewing it as gum remains my favourite. It improved my digestion and oral health, and apparently it also has some liver benefits. Read more

I'll write a legitimate review here, because this is quite a cool product, and I quite enjoy its use. I learned from other reviewers that this product is sap from a tree which is grown in Greece. And that this sap is covered in sand is a testament to its traditional technique of collection--the sap drips from the tree onto the sand, and then the sap is collected from the sand. It feels historic and unique and natural to me, which I enjoy a lot. The first thing I did was popped about 3 pieces in my mouth, it was making a nice gum in my mouth as I moved it around, but it seemed a bit foamy, it didn't seem right. Ah--on the package it says to rinse each drop with water before using. Next I tried just two pieces--being conservative. With this amount, it didn't make as good of a gum in my mouth, but it was okay. I actually laid down and stopped chewing the gum for a while--this was a real mistake. The gum became hard again, and it was all broken up into many tiny pieces. After a while, I realized my tongue and mouth felt like they have many tiny cuts in them. Sure enough, those tiny pieces must be very sharp when they harden in this way, because my tongue and mouth were totally cut up. It took about 2-3 days to heal. This of course was annoying, but anyway I got some insight into what's going on in my mouth because of the pain from every movement. Next, I decided 4-5 pieces would be ideal, and it is. This quickly creates a good gum from the hard pieces, and I can chew it to good effect. Good flavor, and a good feeling in your digestive system. I saw that this gum does not "go bad", so I kept it inside of a folded notecard and chewed it for a while everyday. Then, it became a bit brown-colored, and I got 4-5 new pieces. Now, I am sure to spread the gum out in my mouth, and I actually use my bedroom fan to dry the gum off well, then stick it in my notecard. I also floss and brush my teeth before I chew the mastic gum. This surely greatly helps to reduce any bacteria-attracting content from being on the gum while I keep it in my folded notecard. Now--about the chewing. WARNING: The "TMJ" is known to be "the most complicated joint in the body". Not only complicated, it is delicate. And it is a very important part of your face. You don't want to be foolish or forceful when it comes to the act of chewing a tough gum to try to gain muscle, coordination, and better alignment in your teeth, mandible/maxilla, face, etc. Now, I don't really waste much time just chewing casually. I look in the mirror. Analyze my bite to see what I want to try to improve. Then I chew in the mirror, lightly editing my jaw movements, etc. to improve my bite overtime. If I were to do anything too forceful, I would feel a sharp pain in my TMJ from things being too out of alignment. There are a lot of muscles in your face, and there are many which are involved in a basic chewing motion. It is of course quite fascinating. I've found medical resources and 3D models to be the most efficient way to learn about anatomy. Before--when I was just casually chewing for an hour or so everyday, my right-side chewing muscles became so sore in a way that made me decide to not chew the gum again until it felt totally healed. Surely this would occur because of of alignment issues and muscle weakness, so I think it is the best choice for me, to stick to brief and intentional sections of challenging chewing to encourage my face to grow in better and stronger alignment. I appreciate this product. Cheers! Read more

It is nut the gum that I was looking for. Too expensive and not worth it at all. Read more
