New soap pucks and sticks use a similar formula. They're hard milled soaps. I'm not sure how long they will last compared to the old formula. I wouldn't expect there to be a drastic difference, though.is the new tabac vegan soap still considered a hard/triple milled puck? someone on here said it doesn't last as long as the tallow tabac. also, did they reformulate the tabac shave stick removing the tallow?
Just received a bowl of Tabac with tallow from Amazon yesterday...Welcome back!
A resounding yes, but with one caveat. Tabac quietly reformulated their shave soap last year, replacing tallow. I much prefer the tallow version, which can be had on the BST forum.
I absolutely knew this was coming as soon as I pressed EnterOh my... be prepared to be asked many questions!
May I start with... 1) Would you please post a picture of the ingredients from the Tabac packaging? And 2) Would you please provide the name of the Amazon reseller/vendor?
Asking those questions because Maurer & Wirtz, the maker of Tabac, reformulated a year ago to stop using tallow. You either received old stock (a good thing) which will be evident from the packaging, and will cause a mini stampede among B&B members. Or M&W reformulated again to return to using tallow (a good thing too). Either way, the packaging should tell the story.
Regardless, congratulations on your big score!
I guess I'm weird. I liked it right away. Currently, my whole bathroom smells like Tabac; it's that strong.Tabac: great performance. Strange smell.
The endless Arko urinal puck threads were actually started by Tabac operatives to deflect attention from one of the worst-smelling shave soaps known to man - at least when it's fresh out the pack. Give it a few months to air out & calm down and it starts to grow on you.
Apparently the non tallow Tabac smells a little different from the old tallow soap.I guess I'm weird. I liked it right away. Currently, my whole bathroom smells like Tabac; it's that strong.
I got the non-tallow version first (not knowing there was a reformulation) and thought it smelled like hotel soap.Apparently the non tallow Tabac smells a little different from the old tallow soap.
