The story goes that a sick donkey was abandoned by its master on the island of La Toja and given up for dead. The owner returned to the island some time later and found the animal in good health. The miracle was attributed to the therapeutic hot springs of La Toja, and the idyllic island became a famous spa where guests still go to take the waters and immerse themselves in mud baths. For almost 200 years La Toja Thermal Salts spring has maintained its esteemed reputation for healing the skin and the body. La Toja has been making soap from the spa's mineral salts since early in the 20th Century and it is available in literally every supermarket and convenience store in Spain. The La Toja brand includes bath soaps and gels, shaving soaps and cream, aftershave splash and balm, and we are delighted to be able to offer this affordable yet highly regarded brand here at MAGUIRE'S Barbershop! Made in Spain.
