This Morning, Showering With “Drunk Goat Soap” From The Goat Lady: Smells Like Raspberry

by Jon Katz

I showered with “Drunk Goat Soap” this morning. It was great.

I knew when Cindy Casavant showed up at the Cambridge Farmers Market with a new soap called “Drunk Goat Soap” that we would be friends and that I would buy this soap.

Cindy is a true creative, she is a goat farmer with new ideas and a lot of drive, especially when it comes to soap making as you can see on her snappy blog.

She and her husband Larry set up a goat farm seven years ago to chase their dreams. People who do that are blessed in my book.

I’m not a beer drinker and don’t want to smell beer in the shower, but I needn’t worry. When you mix local beer and goat milk, says Cindy, you get a lot of lather. I can testify that this is true; I used the Drunk Goat Soap this morning. The bar itself is not scented, but the scent of the local cherry/raspberry beer comes out when you use it.

Cindy is nothing if not transparent. I’m urging her to tell some of her wonderful goat stories and show her goat photos on www.cazacrez.com.

And she posts the ingredients of the Drunk Goat Soap, which has become my favorite of her soaps, and cheap at the price: $6 a bar.

I’m an amateur connoisseur when it comes to soap; I’ve even tried to make it at several points in my life but was unsuccessful. Mine was slop. Cindy knows what she is doing. She is the real deal, a creative farmer who loves her dogs and loves her soaps.

Ingredients: “Coconut Oil, Olive Oil Pomace, Our Goat Milk, Local Beer, Shea Butter, Sodium Hydroxide, Sunflower Oil, Powder Sugar.” Her email is [email protected]. She deserves great success.

  1. That name is brilliant! It would make such a wonderful pampering /funny gift all in one. The name conjures up a really funky bad smell in my head- sort of like overripe teen age boys.

  2. Hi Jon, Hope you and Maria are feeling better. I thoroughly enjoy reading your blog and seeing your photos. I ordered some soap from Cindy; something for myself and the soap dough for my great-nieces. Have a lovely day.

  3. Mmmm…I see a bar of lavender soap right atop that pile. Lavender is my favorite scent of all, but your chosen one sounds interesting, too.
