Mastiha is a natural resin, known since antiquity to the people of Eastern Mediterranean countries, who chewed (masticated) it to clean their teeth and sweeten their breath. It was the very first natural chewing gum of the ancient world. ELMA chewing gum does not contain any source of phenylalanine, BHT & BHA antioxidants.ELMA chewing gum contains natural Chios gum mastic and mastic oil. For this reason, taste and smoothness may vary.ELMA is a product of the Chios gum mastic growers association and in 2011 earned the superior taste award. Chios mastic is a unique agricultural product produced in a small area in the south part of Chios (Greek island). The settlements of the mastic producing region are called "mastic villages". Mastic is the product of the mastic tree, prospering only in south Chios. There is evidence that cultivation and exploitation of mastic originates in ancient years, during the Hellenistic period. Chios mastic's superior quality established it as a unique product with significant commercial value and exclusivity of supply. Little has changed in the mastic production process from the ancient times until today. The exploitation of the trees for the extraction mastic (their resin), starts from the fifth year of their life. The period of their cultivation is from July until the beginning of October. The first step in the process is the leveling and cleaning of the perimeter around the trunk of the tree, where the mastic falls. The next step is the spread of white soil (calcium carbonate powder) on this area in order to facilitate gathering without altering its chemical composition. Then the "kentos" starts, in other words the carving of scars (incisions) on the skin of the tree. The incisions are made systematically: 5-10 on each tree, every 4-5 days. The resin flows progressively from the incisions, falling on the ground where it solidifies gradually, providing either large chunks ("pites") or smaller ones ("psilo"). These chunks, once collected, are cleaned by the mastic producers and their families through a tedious process that typically lasts throughout the winter.
