Murphy and McNeil/Black Mountain Shaving Nantahala
Kodiak base
What a pleasure this soap is to use with its base which includes duck fat, beef and bear tallows. Very smooth and the scent is just delightful. I cannot do the scent justice so I will simply quote the maker:
"Nantahala means "jumping waters" in Cherokee, and as water makes it's way through and binds slate, granite, and earth... so too does water shape and bind us together in the shaving community. Nantahala is a dedication to and celebration of nature and the spiritual connectivity that binds us all. Clean streams, slate and rock, trees, woods, and the sweet sunlight on our faces. Every note in this fragrance carries a meaning for me and my time with family in the Nantahala forest. The sun is represented by citrus notes such as bergamot, pear, and lemon. Marine notes and pink pepper remind me of clean water running over stone, and the dark canopy of the forest is brought by notes such as wood, tonka, patchouli and lavender."
