This recipe has 61% Pine Tar! Never made it. It's not on her website so I had to take a screen shot of the video which is here.

After having played around with several pine tar recipes I find that I like around 12% for a strong batch and 6 % for a light batch. The pine scented pine tar soap I made was very popular with guys who didn't seem at all bothered by what I found to be a very strong smelling soap. I used wake up rosemary for another batch and my testers so far and that is much better received by my female testers.

I found that the pine tar accelerated the soap a lot and I had a very firm trace in less then a minute. Getting it in the mold was a race but it turned out pretty well.
