Our aged soaps come to us unwrapped from the manufacturers in Palestine, and are restacked in towers, covered with a cotton sheet, in California and cured for a minimum additional one year. We then wrap them with compostable brown paper before shipping them to the customer.

Long-cured olive soap bars have two benefits over fresher bars: (1) the additional aging ensures that the bar is completely (99.9% or more) converted to sodium olivate, and (2) the moisture content is as low as possible resulting in a denser and longer lasting bar. 

Sometimes misplaced soap bars are found after decades of passive aging at the soap factories in Palestine -- hidden in a desk drawer or fallen behind a piece of machinery -- and they are especially prized, with workers flipping coins or playing a card game to see who gets to keep it. Since pure olive soaps do not expire and become better with age, we bring a version of that cured bar experience abroad through these extra air-cured products.

Best soap!

This is the only soap I use because it’s so healthy for our skin. But the packaging is also so beautiful, the process ancient, and the people producing it have the most enduring spirit. I would not want to use anything else. Shipping is quick, price is right, and I also receive a lovely poem with my package.

I really like the almond soap and appreciate that you can send unwrapped soaps at a discounted price. Such a nice soap. Great gift for friends. I appreciate that you make these products available. Keep up the good work.
