Huh, that's weird about the RR lather dissipating on you. Have you always had that issue with their soap? It's been a couple years since I've had one in the day-to-day use rotation but even with our crazy hard Lake Michigan water here in Chicagoland I never had an issue lathering. Wasn't necessarily a slam-dunk in post-shave but always slick enough.

I have never used a RR soap, or if I did it was when I was going through samples waaaay back in the early days.

Did I just get back from sneaking out for some errands which included purposefully buying two bottles of mezcal and accidentally buying a bottle of Booker's? Yes I did. Do I feel bad about it? Just the Booker's, but the price was good!

I'm going to go ahead and claim posting today's manliest shave. I mean this stuff is so intensely masculine. So powerfully virile. That even @dangerousdon wouldn't glug it on.
