No it is soap.
It was a production only meant for the Spanish market, La Toja wouldn't ship outside Spain from their website, but some Spanish web-shops got hold of it and for a while it was available until La Toja discontinued it - I think it got too popular and it took too much work to make the wooden bowls and maybe also the bigger sized soap block.
This soap however, is identical to their stick, although a lot of people seem to think it is different.

Thanks for the information, Søren; very interesting. Good to know about the stick, which I plan to order.
