ELMA is natural and its flavor, color, and texture may vary in production, since its confection is based on the most pure materials. Mastiha’s unique aroma cedes its place to its discrete taste rather quickly, as no artificial aroma has been added. Its natural characteristics remain almost unaltered because no artificial sweeteners, no antioxidants, whatsoever, are used for its confection. Those particular characteristics, as well as its hardness, actually certify its self-evident naturalness.
