Declaration Grooming bison tallow is truly superb—in my view much superior to Sterling, Tabac, and B&M and even better than Wholly Kaw donkey. I hear Grooming Department duck fat is even better, but everything is sold out.
Hi Razor66, I have not tried GD yet, but several months of research on the top 3 shaving soaps made it clear to me that GD is considered by many to stand at the very top. Tentative release date is supposed to be some time in August or September but no firm date has been announced yet. Suffice it to say that when a release date is known, there will be an explosion of posts and threads to notify others! If you keep on checking the soap forum of B & B, you won't miss the date.
Hi @discerningbev , are you putting Mike's Natural above Wholly Kaw Donkey Milk, Declaration Grooming, Eufros, Tallow and Steels, B M Reserve, even slightly so? I highly regard your take on various products, that's why I'm curious to know what you think. I've never tried Mike's Natural though.
@Hooman Yes! I have tried all those you listed and like them but Mike’s just works best for me. Eufros would be #2 and B&M #3. I also love Mike’s straight forward scents that are medium strength with most of his soaps made with essential oils only. Mike’s however does have lanolin and I believe you are allergic to it.
Thanks @discerningbev , it must be a star performer then, at $10 for the the unscented version, I'm willing to take the risk even if it has lanolin. I'm very curious now!
@Hooman Let me know what you think of Mike's when you use it. And yes his soaps are very reasonably priced as well.
