no version of tabac touches the artisan soaps you see today. the vegan tabac is just as good as the tallow tabac. there is no difference between the two except one has tallow and one doesn't. Most people on here who have used the 2021 reformulation have said they liked it.
It‘s all opinion, experience and preference. I specifically tested both against each other, tallow Tabac vs vegan. I gave it a fair shot and prefer the tallow original over the vegan. There is a difference between the two. The vegan is a different soap, close but not the same product in scent or performance.
Mauer and Wirtz (and Czech and Speake for that matter) did not want to change their formula. The Kappus Group and Dreiring -Werk filed for bankruptcy and tallow Tabac was no more.
I have used all the top home cooked (artisan) soaps on offer and recently released. Tallow Tabac equally stands with them in performance and surpasses many in my experience.
