Sakura Rice
Rice water, rice flour and cherry blossom.
The water in this recipe is replaced entirely with rice water. Rice flour and refined rice bran oil give it body; a single red mica draws the blossom.

Every bar cures for four weeks, so batches are small and counted.
Shall I tell you when it is ready?

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
-
Cherry blossom
Light and floral, closer to a clean laundry note than to a sweet perfume.
- Texture
-
Rice flour through the bar
Rice flour gives it a faint tooth — not a scrub, just texture. The softest lather of the plant-based bars.
- The base
-
Rice water instead of water
The water is replaced entirely with rice water. Refined rice bran oil gives it body.
- 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. Rice water stands in for all of the water in the recipe, with rice flour and rice bran oil. A single red mica draws the blossom across the white.
