Product Information: The Mastic Tears Classic boasts aromas reminiscent of pine, eucalyptus, mint, and lavender. Its flavour profile is fresh and herbal, complemented by a subtle sweetness. This mastic spirit liqueur is elegant with a sweet & refreshing aftertaste. Enjoy well chilled as a shot, in cocktails or as an after dinner digestive drink. Mastic Tears is made by EVA Distillers in Mytilene on the Island of Lesbos, Greece, a range of distinctive mastiha liqueur. The base of this traditional Greek liqueur is Mastiha, derived from the resin of mastic trees and sweetened lightly with sugar. The resin forms droplets resembling tears and harvested using precise methods. While mastic trees grow throughout Greece, only those on the island of Chios produce this resin. Curiously attempts to replicate this resin production elsewhere have been unsuccessful, adding to its mystique. Historically, mastiha has been valued for its medicinal properties and culinary uses, even recommended by Hippocrates himself for treating indigestion. Maker: EVA distillery (Ελληνική Βιομηχανία Αποσταγμάτων - Greek Distillation Company) was founded in 1995, in Mytilene, by the Patrikopoulos brothers. The development of the company is based on the family’s love and experience in the food and beverage industry, whose history begins in Pergamon, Asia Minor, with oriental recipes, flavours and raw materials. Today, the third generation continues dynamically, delicately balancing tradition and modern technology. The distillery employs state-of-the-art copper stills and bottling machines, and houses a well-equipped laboratory as well as the Ouzo Museum. An integral part of the successful development of the company is the experienced staff and network of EVA partners that ensure the optimal production, bottling, storage, distribution and export process certified by the ISO Quality Management System: 22000 and programme HACCP. By constantly building the identity of its products, EVA is a dynamic brand name in the distillation industry and is among the top ten fastest growing in the country. The strong distribution network of EVA consistently supports its products in Greece and in 22 countries around the world. The Mastic Tree: The mastic tree (Pistacia lentiscus) is an evergreen shrub, of 2-3 metres height. Its life span is more than 100 years. Before the tree carving process, the ground around the trunk needs to be weeded. Cleaning and soil leveling take place so that any mastic tears that may fall on the ground can be easily gathered. Fine white soil, is spread on the ground to create a smooth surface ready for the mastic tears to fall on. The “kentima”, as the carving of small scars on the bark is called, is the most crucial stage in mastic production. It is done with the help of a small sharp metal tool with grooved ends, called kentitiri. Mastic is gathered before the first autumn rain and the cleaning and sorting process begins. It is sieved and diligently cleaned with olive oil soap and rain water. Large and medium sized mastic tears are cleaned one by one with a knife or a needle.

Luxardos second specialty after Maraschino Originale produced since 1821. When Luxardo marasca cherries are harvested at the beginning of every summer, part of the juice is separated and left to mature until natural fermentation occurs. When a certain alcohol by volume is reached neutral alcohol is added to the juice to avoid further fermentation and it is then allowed to age in oak vats. Clear and deep red in color, the pungent aroma of freshly squeezed cherry juice. The taste is intense, thick and syrupy with sweetness partially offset by fruit tartness. Luxardo Cherry Liqueur was renamed with the curious name Sangue Morlacco (Morlacco Blood) by the famous Italian poet Gabriele DAnnunzio in 1919, at the time of the Fiume military expedition. On the front label remains the dedication that the Poet sent to the Luxardo family with his signature.

Luxardo Maraschino Originale is still produced according to a special formula created by Girolamo Luxardo in 1821. When Luxardo marasca cherries are harvested at the beginning of every summer, they are put in alcoholic infusion in larch-wood vats together with some leaves and branches of the same trees for up to three years. When ready, both the liquid and the solid parts are distilled in traditional copper pot stills, separating the heart from heads and tails. Only the heart of the distillate is then allowed to mature in ash-wood vats. The last process consists in transforming the distillate in liqueur by adding a simple syrup of water and sugar lowering the ABV to 32%. Crystal clear in colour, the aroma is typical of marasca cherry distillate with strong alcohol spirit and roasted nuttiness, while the taste results smooth but sharp at the same time with hints of dark chocolate, vanilla and orange marmalade. The tall green bottle with its red cap is still hand-plaited in straw within the company, and resembles the Maraschino bottles produced in Zara in the early days, where the straw was placed in order to prevent damage during transportation. Luxardo Maraschino Originale can be enjoyed in many classic cocktails or neat as an after dinner drink. It is also ideal over fruits such as strawberries, pineapples, oranges etc. or as a flavour in confectionary and ice creams.
