Best 2020 soaps? (lather wise)

I love low cost talow soap
Vitos brick talow
Cella brick tallow
Speick stick talow
Tabac talow
Arko talow
Haslinger
 
MdC
MWF
Haslinger Schafmilch
Meissner Tremonia
Faena
D.R Harris
Saponificio Varesino

I would rate the above at 9,5-10,0 lather wise.
 
Today I was reminded of how great Stirling mutton tallow base is when I used Stirling Glastonbury for another go. Creamy rich lather.

I also like Declaration Grooming Milksteak, B&M Excelsior and Soft Heart, Grooming Dept, M&M Kodiak, Zingari Man Sego, Wholly Kaw Siero and Tallow & Steel for a few other great lathering soaps.
 
So...

A&E Kaizen
Declaration Icarus/Milksteak
Wholly Kaw Siero
Southern Witchcrafts
Wickham
Barrister's Excelsior
Phoenix CK-6
Phoenix & Beau

I could throw from the window all my other products and use only the above.
 
Mdc - Fougere
DR Harris - Windsor
Officina Artigiana

Speick
Mogno
Cella EEB

Honorable Mention: Proraso Single Blade (Cypress & Vetiver, Wood & Spice)

Of all the noninations in this thread, I disagree with B+M (Reserve).
 
Stirling - Any of them, super easy to lather
Tabac Original - Again, no issues making a nice thick, creamy lather
Proraso - Never an issue lathering

Honorable Mentions: All lather quite well, but take a few more swirls to load the brush
Caties Bubbles
RR What the Puck
Soap Commander

Interesting... Reserve did not perform well for you ?

It's "just OK" for me.

Someone posted a video clip of the B+M Guy with West Coast Shaving recently,
talking about how to best lather-up the Reserve.

The B+M guy talks about high vs low structure lathers.
(B+M = Low, MdC = High)

I think I'm finding I like "high structure" best.
