Peppermint is one of the oldest cultivated aromatics in the world. A hybrid of watermint and spearmint that turned up in a field in England in the 1750s and turned out to be the best of both. Today Oregon's Willamette Valley produces some of the highest-menthol peppermint grown anywhere in the world. That is the oil in this bar. The scent is cool, sharp, and immediate. Steam amplifies it. The menthol clarity is the reason people reach for this bar first thing in the morning and again after long runs, long hikes, and long days. Gluten-free ground oats are mixed in for exfoliation. Fine enough for daily use, steady enough that you feel it. The combination of cool peppermint and soft oat scrub is the whole experience. "Peppermint Oatmeal is the perfect wake me up for my morning shower. This soap leaves my skin soft and smooth." — Tammy M., verified buyer
