Glad Kona is doing better...... Also could you please tell me the scent of your shops soaps again. I have never tried them so I am unaware of their scent descriptions as well as the new one too.... Thank you....

Nice shave, its components all worked very well together. I still don’t understand why folks have issue with this soap I think it is truly one of the best. I also don’t get all the hype over the change in formulary, an am interested to see how it works.

Honestly I think, and would challenge, that most folks in a blind study would not be really able to tell the difference, if lathered the same. Including myself. But as usual it creates a buying frenzy, which of course will cause an explosion in pricing on BST Forums, and on the secondary market.

I plan on doing this blind test as well with this very soap both tallow and the new form

Anyway a good 3-pass DSBBS shave with the feather. Good aftershave and IMHO the best mint frag on the market

A great start to the day
Make yours a good one as well!

Find a beer made soap is easy…. Finding a beer fragranced soap, another issue. Sure, you have the stouts, but a Pilsner or Lager scented….Umm nope. So time to get creative. Darwin and Cedrat to the rescue. A bit hoppy, and lemon. So a bit of a Shandy Vibe.

The brush worked fantastic for its initial usage and although synthetic, the brush mimics a nice gel tipped badger. A bit of a lather hog, and a water hog, I am sure once dialed in. It will be a good addition. Looks alone will keep my cola brush company. Hmmm now for a scotch brush!

Although not a true “Matchy Matchy” shave it did capture a nice ice cold Shandy for a 105 degree day

As always the “wraith” dis a fine DSBBS shave

Have a Super Saturday folks!
