In a centuries-old tradition, the sap of the mastic tree is collected by hand, dried in the wind and cleaned, over aperiod of several months. The resulting crystals are then distilled in a process that brings together artisanal hand-crafted copper stills with the science and experience of our master distiller to produce Axia.

Axia is an elegant, extra dry spirit distilled from the aromatic resin of the Mastiha tree, a gnarled and twisted evergreen found clutching to the hillsides of Chios, Greece. Revered for its natural flavour and beauty, this resin has incited jealousy and warfare. It’s even been used as a snakebite anti-venom - a potent elixir from which our spirit has been inspired. Axia keeps the unique characteristics of Mastiha, but with additional velvety flavour notes of bergamot and cypress, and a fragrant rose aroma. refreshing extra dry, Axia is the perfect replacement for vodka, tequila, and gin.
