This family-owned Lower East Side shop specializes exclusively in products made with Mastiha, an all-natural antioxidant resin and spice native to the Greek island of Chios. Available products range from baked goods and beverages to soaps and gift items.

I came upon this store and instantly fell in love. Their facial lotions are great and really helped me with blemishes and keeping my skin super soft! They also have great soaps, candles and even products to eat. Great shop ! Highly recommend!

Mastiha Rocks!

by BennyEF

I LOVE THIS STORE!!!! From the store design to the diversity of its products. The mastiha shop is a can't miss. The store is in a prime spot as it is located in the L.E.S. The staff was very knowledgable and very eager to educate me on the medicinal benefits of mastiha. The shop has a variety of all natural food and cosmetic products. The majority of the products have mastiha (ma-stee-ha) which is anti-bacterial and antioxidant. Mastiha is a resin that is produced from a tree that grows exclusively on the island of Hios, Greece.

I was on this site looking for a greek place in they city b/c i'm originally from Cyprus. To my suprise when looking this place popped up! I was so happy I rushed right down to this place to check it out, man it was awesome. Everything was authentic and from my native land. Most of the products are made from mastiha which is such a cool product. From the soaps to chewing gum! I'm definitely heading back soon!
