• Skinos Citrus Martini: The spirit's natural botanicals enhance fresh lemon juice and vermouth for an elegant, aromatic twist on a classic.
• Mastiha Sour: Shaken with fresh lemon and a touch of simple syrup, Skinos brings a complex herbal sweetness that balances the tart citrus.

Gourmet Food Pairings

Pairs exceptionally well with grilled seafood, tangy Greek salads, and soft goat cheese desserts.

Pro-Tip: Try this chilled alongside grilled octopus or fresh oysters to amplify both the briny sea flavors and the resinous herbal notes of the Mastiha.

The Brand Story & Heritage

Skinos is hand-crafted on the island of Chios by passionate distillers dedicated to reviving one of Greece's oldest and most legendary traditions: the art of crafting mastiha from the sap of the rare mastic tree. Respect for heritage meets modern techniques, resulting in a spirit that is both rooted in history and forward-thinking—celebrating purity, authenticity, and the Mediterranean way of life.

Why It Stands Out – The Competitive Edge

Compared to other liqueurs, Skinos Mastiha is distinguished by its use of authentic Chios mastiha resin, giving it a uniquely piney, herbal profile unlike anything else. It's the perfect choice for the drinker who wants to explore Mediterranean flavors and craft cocktails with an authentic Greek twist.

The Bottom Line

A reliable, high-quality Greek liqueur that belongs on every home bar for its fresh complexity and versatile mixability.
