Skinos is the ancient name for Mastiha. The taste of this transparent spirit is sometimes difficult to describe: it smells like a Mediterranean hillside covered with wild herbs like crushed juniper and freshly cut mint leaves , like aromas of rain impregnated cedarwood and violet essential oil.
Slightly sweet yet fresh, with delicate flavor and balance that makes it extremely "flexible". It can be served neat, chilled, as an aperitif or digestif, or used in cocktails and even as a flavor enhancer in the kitchen giving a distinct Mediterranean touch.
