Sandbar
A horizon in a bar: water above, sand below.
Blue and white poured together so the water marbles as it falls, over a band of sand given its grain with ground 100% Colombian coffee. A firm bar, scented with true lavender essential oil rather than a fragrance oil. No two are alike.

Every bar cures for four weeks, so batches are small and counted.

Notes on the bar
Keep it on a draining dish. A cold-process bar left sitting in water softens and will not last the way it should.
- Scent
-
Lavender, from the oil itself
True lavender essential oil, not a fragrance oil. Clean and herbal rather than sweet, and it runs through the whole bar.
- Texture
-
Water over a band of sand
The blues and the white go into the mould at the same time, so the water marbles as it falls. The sand band gets its grain from ground coffee, and you can see the specks in it.
- The base
-
Olive, cocoa butter and lard
Lard and cocoa butter make it firm. Contains lard.
- Origin
-
Cured in Naples, Florida
Cold process, small batch, cured a minimum of four weeks before it leaves the workshop.
How this batch is made
Process
Cold process. The batter is split and coloured, then poured into the mould all at once so the colours marble as they fall. A portion is set aside for the sand and given its grain with ground coffee. Nothing is stirred into place, which is why no two bars come out the same.
