About AXIA
Axia is the world’s first extra dry spirit strength mastiha (pronounced Mas Tik aa). Produced from mastic trees that originate and grow in the southern part of the Greek Island of Chios. Cultivating mastic is an age old and sustainable practice that is both time and labour intensive. The tree’s and “milked” and left to dry in the wind, which forms mastic crystals that are collected, cleaned and graded by hand. The crystals are twice distilled in a process that combines the age-old art of the hand-crafted copper still with cutting-edge science. The end result is a premium, unsweetened 40% ABV spirit with velvety flavour notes of bergamot, cedar, cypress, mint, grass and pepper and a fragrant, rose aroma.
