This bar soap is loaded with natural pine tar; a dark, sticky pine tree resin extracted from the wood at high temperatures and pressures. The reason for pine’s mass exploitation and popularity is because they are very useful trees, and so is their tar!
Pine tar has a multitude of uses ranging from cosmetics, veterinary aid, waterproofing, and sport. It’s a legendary substance most commonly known for maritime use, and adhesive in baseball! Very few who have rigged a ship or paced a baseball dugout have walked away without experiencing pine tar’s distinctive aroma.
The scent is a primitive manly connection to nature, and an acquired taste; but for the groups of men aforementioned it is a reminder of hard work, grit, and simpler times. Bring the nature of rich forest pines from the Sierra Nevada Mountains to your shower!
The deep brown color of this soap is derived purely from the pine tar and has no other color source.
