Skeggi Soap Co.

The plant was once used as an ingredient to add flavor to beer (known as gruit) but has been replaced by hops, mainly because the bog myrtle had a reputation for causing severe headaches.
Among the Vikings, in Scandinavia, this beer was known as “porsøl”. Some believe that this brew was the reason for the Berserkers. The leaves and fruits are still used for flavoring some brands of schnapps and liqueurs.

Bog myrtle is strongly aromatic and in the past, it was used to repel fleas and other vermin. In Scotland, it is well known as a way to ward off the Highland midge. The herb’s insect repelling properties have since then been scientifically proven to be accurate.

The plant thrives in Scottish Highland peat bogs, alongside rivers and on the edge of our lochs. Bog myrtle is also reputed to be extremely useful for sensitive skin and acne, and helping to delay skin-ageing. Bog Myrtle has a fresh herbal, lemony scent.
