Chios Mastiha gum is very good gum and good for you. If you don't like the powder of the gum you can put a few drops of warm water to it but you might be removing the health benefits. You MAY find in the packet both hard and super soft almost sticky pieces, some bigger some smaller since it is a natural resin/sap made from the trunk of the Mastic Tree. The Whiter the color the better. Once you adapt to it you will find it long lasting. Pleasant mild flavor (not minty )No sugar in gum. It is Not your typical American Gum. There's nothing like it. Experience what others have known for Centuries and passed down for Generations. If on any Medications check with your doctor first, just to be on the safe side.

Great value. Generous quantity for the price. Securely packaged. Arrived fast. Definitely has a unique flavor. It tastes like a tree resin for us country kids that grew up chewing found resin balls on trees for chewing gum. Earthy, hint of pine-family, delicate flavor. We got it for cooking use. It is a resin and recommended to grind in a mortar and pestle with salt for savory recipes and with sugar for sweet recipes to avoid gumming up.

First time Mastic chewer. It turns to powder in your mouth, but as you chew it, the powder turns into gum. So start with one pearl chew it carefully in one spot, then when it forms gum add another. I probably added about 12 pearls overtime. Then I chewed it all day on and off. Yes, that means I rechewed old gum, which is weird but in this case works well. The gum turns to powder again when you start to rechew it so you have to be careful, but quickly forms gum. If you are chewing it constantly, I find it hard to talk and chew gum, maybe that says something about me, but I end up biting the inside of my mouth, maybe it’s jaw fatigue. It is a bit of a workout for your jaw. I have a lot of stress tension in my jaw, and this has helped loosen it up, since I am not clenching it closed. Flavor-wise it’s a light flavor of pine and juniper berry. I found the flavor to be very subtle after chewing it for a long time. The gum is fairly firm after chewing it for a while and stays consistently firm for hours. Overall I like the consistent firmness, subtle flavor, and lake of unnatural ingredients. There are also potential health benefits, but I am not focused there. It’s a bit expensive, but I’ll probably buy more in the future.

I wish I could’ve just trusted the other reviews. It was not good at all, it literally separate into millions of pieces while trying to chew it! The flavor isn’t that great as well, and it’s extremely overpriced for such a small amount

Thick hard gum. Good to chew if you fidget a lot or are trying to quit smoking. Some of the reviews were saying that it'll stick to you back teeth. To solve this, just chew it for the first 30 seconds with you front corner teeth till it's less sappy and sticky.

Product was good quality as far as I could tell, but I was expecting this to be harder to chew. Instead it is about the same consistency as regular chewing gum. If you already know you like chios this seems like a fine product, but if you’re a newbie like me this may not be for you.

What I received unlike to the product pictures, was one flat piece of gum. It must have been exposed to hot environment where caused melting of the gum and then colder temperatures which solidified it back.

The taste is interestingly good & it can be chewed more then once if stored properly.
