Mythos Gum
Our Story
Our journey began with an unexpected discovery during a trip to the island of Chios, where Ancient Greek traditions still shape the culture today.
Locals shared stories of mastic gum, a resin they’ve been chewing for centuries—not just for its flavor, but for its remarkable health benefits.
As I continued my trip, I saw how deeply rooted this tradition was in daily life, with mastic trees shaping the very landscape of Chios.
Upon returning to the UK, I was surprised to find how difficult it was to access mastic gum. Something so natural, with such profound benefits, was largely unknown and unavailable. That’s when we knew we had to make a change, and Mythos Gum was born.
What is Mastic?
Mastic, often referred to as the "teardrops of Chios," is a resin obtained from the mastic tree, native exclusively to the Greek island of Chios. This natural treasure has been coveted for centuries, not only for its distinctive flavor but also for its myriad of health benefits.

At Mythos Gum, we believe in the power of small actions leading to significant change.
Our mission goes beyond just providing a natural product—we’re redefining the experience of chewing gum by offering an eco-conscious alternative that supports both wellness and the planet.
In a world where plastic and synthetic ingredients are the norm, we are here to challenge that. Every time you chew Mythos Gum, you’re making a choice: a choice for better health, a more sculpted jawline, and a greener planet.
We are deeply committed to sustainability, with recyclable packaging and carbon-neutral distribution, ensuring that every aspect of our product reflects our respect for the environment.
But you’re not doing it alone—you’re joining a community that believes in the power of nature to heal, nourish, and sustain.
Our vision is to build a movement—one where the simple act of chewing helps reduce plastic waste, supports local farmers in Chios, and redefines wellness, one piece at a time. We’re not just selling gum; we’re empowering you to choose better, for yourself and for the world.
