We were deeply moved to be included among those who carry this tradition forward — alongside the president of the Chios Mastiha Growers Association, the researchers, the women who clean each tear with care, and every person who works quietly and tirelessly to preserve this heritage.
To the editors, writers, and everyone who brought this beautiful tribute to life, thank you. And to everyone who continues to show love and respect for mastiha, your support keeps this living tradition alive and rooted in purpose.
