Tabactober 2019

That is soooooooo sad... If I had a spare I'd send it to you. Tabac should be in every den IMHO.

Thanks Alan. I did use up a whole puck of it in the past, and enjoyed it, but feel no need to revisit it. I would say that Tabac should at least pass through every den at some time.

We can all agree here that Tabac is the best soap in the world and there's no point shaving with anything else.

Fixed it for you.

Truthfully, I'm a bit jealous. I'm in Sabbatical and couldn't buy a puck of Tabac to participate. Maybe during resupply so I can participate next year.

There are only 5 or 10 soaps that attract this sort of cult following. Tabac is one of the most popular of these.

You've never experienced low structured lather until you've tried Tabac. B&M aspire getting to that level, someday hopefully.

Based on your descriptions in other posts, I get low-structured lather most days with WMS.

But it's your main soap and you've mastered it to that level. Low structured lather with Tabac is dummy proof, hence me shilling endorsing it.

Actually, WMS has been my only soap for the last 180 shaves. I think I have about 25 shaves remaining in the puck.

For now, I plan to try Tabac at the beginning of 2020.

@FoolishMortal You have a real knack for these themed months. Thanks for your efforts at keeping them so current. No Tabac in my den or I would be here too.

Ha! I'm just willing to push them to the fore and keep pounding the drum...


Please do join us next year if you can!

Not using it everyday but tonight will be the second use this month. Just have too many I need to use. Tabac is one of them. Love it though.
