Skinos
Skinos Mastiha is a Greek liqueur made using the resin from the mastiha tree on the Greek island of Chios. The resin is harvested by making small cuts in the tree, bringing out drops of the resin that are said to look like tears. The resulting liqueur created from the resin is highly fragrant, with earthy, leafy notes washing over your palate, joined by hints of sweetness bringing balance. It's often served chilled and alongside food, whether it be meze dishes or accompanying a cold dessert.

We had this on holiday and addicted ever since. Shot after dinner or : Prosecco glass, shot of this, shot of pink gin and 4 shots of soda (or more if you want a softer version) . Add fresh mint and thank me later :)
I love the stuff, but not sure what to make of it.? It is allegedly a digestive, but not in the same class as ouzo or pernod. Maybe it is more subtle unlike zevanier, which is just raw.
Chilled, it was lovely, almost a carrot-like taste … earthy. Delicious.
Fantastic, earthy, slightly sweet, with no harsh aftertaste
Unique flavour but the taste isn't as strong as in other mastihas I have had
