Vaasan Tar Soap - Finnish Terva Bar Soap

Real pine tar gives this handmade Finnish bar its deep brown color and its smoky, resinous scent — the smell Finns grow up with, and one most Americans meet for the first time in a sauna. There's no added dye or fragrance in it; the tar does all of it. A little goes a long way, and the scent stays on skin after rinsing. Use it on hands and body, in the shower or after the heat. Made in Vaasa, where the company has been producing soap since 1886.
