The soap

The history of soap in Greece dates back to antiquity.
The ancient Greeks were already using natural oils mixed with ashes to cleanse and care for the skin.
With the spread of the olive tree throughout the Mediterranean, olive oil became the basic ingredient in soap-making.
Cold saponification methods, still used today, began to spread in the 8th century.
Greek islands such as Crete and Corfu have become production centers renowned for the quality of their natural, handcrafted soaps.
