Frequently Asked Questions About Mastic-flavored black coffee
What is mastic-flavored black coffee?
Mastic-flavored black coffee is coffee scented with mastic, an aromatic resin from the mastic tree. It is often made with finely ground coffee in a small pot, and “black” means it is served without milk.
How do you make mastic-flavored black coffee at home?
To make mastic-flavored black coffee, gently heat finely ground coffee and water with a small amount of crushed mastic in a pot. Remove it from the heat as it begins to foam; prolonged boiling can flatten the foam and aroma.
What does mastic taste like in mastic-flavored black coffee?
In mastic-flavored black coffee, mastic tastes resinous and subtly pine-like, with a fresh, aromatic finish. A little gives the coffee a distinctive fragrance, while too much can overwhelm its roasted flavor.
Can you use mastic tears to make mastic-flavored black coffee?
Yes, mastic tears can be used to make mastic-flavored black coffee. Crush them finely before adding them, since whole pieces dissolve unevenly and the resin can stick to kitchen tools.
Is mastic-flavored black coffee the same as Greek mastic coffee?
Not always. Mastic-flavored black coffee describes coffee with mastic aroma, while Greek mastic coffee can refer to particular local recipes or serving styles. Both may use the same resin, but preparation and coffee type can differ.
Does mastic-flavored black coffee contain caffeine?
Yes, mastic-flavored black coffee contains caffeine from the coffee itself. Mastic adds aroma, not caffeine; the amount in a cup varies with the coffee and how it is brewed.
Is mastic-flavored black coffee sweetened?
No, mastic-flavored black coffee is unsweetened unless sugar or another sweetener is added. Mastic can smell faintly sweet, but its aroma does not mean the coffee contains added sugar.
Why does mastic stick to the grinder when making mastic-flavored black coffee?
Mastic is a sticky resin, so it can cling to a grinder as it warms during grinding. Chilling the pieces briefly and crushing them in a mortar before adding them to mastic-flavored black coffee can make preparation easier.
Can you make mastic-flavored black coffee in an espresso machine?
Yes, you can add mastic aroma to coffee made with an espresso machine, but avoid putting sticky resin directly into the machine or grinder. Infuse a tiny amount separately and strain it if needed to keep equipment clear.
Does mastic-flavored black coffee help digestion?
Mastic-flavored black coffee is not proven to improve digestion. Coffee can stimulate bowel activity in some people, but it can also aggravate reflux or stomach discomfort; mastic’s traditional use does not establish that the drink treats digestive problems.

What is Mastic-flavored black coffee?
Mastic-flavored black coffee is coffee brewed without milk, with aromatic mastic resin lending it a distinctive, pine-like fragrance. It is associated with Turkish and Aegean coffee traditions, where the resin is used to perfume finely ground coffee rather than turn it into a milky drink.
It is commonly prepared in a small pot and served thick, with the grounds settling in the cup. In Turkey and the wider Aegean, it makes a leisurely after-meal coffee; elsewhere, enjoy it as you would a small, strong black coffee, perhaps with a glass of water or a sweet bite. Unsweetened, it is very low in calories and suits anyone looking for an aromatic coffee without added sugar.
