Review (5/5): If This Were a 100-Year-Old Import, It Would Be Famous
If you thought that only the European Union produces quality shaving products and that American shaving was all about multi-blade contraptions and goop-out-of-a-can, think again. I received a jar of this great shaving soap as a Father's Day present. I have found it slick and incredibly thick and cushioning. While it is advertised as being scented with Juniper, the dominant fragrance is that of tallow. This isn't bad; you just have to get used to natural products. I have put it in my standard rotation, which also includes Mitchells' Wool Fat and Tabac. Is it as good as those two? As with much else in life, the answer is "It depends". I am accustomed to good shaving soaps. In addition to the foregoing, I also regularly use Institut Karite and Provence Sante. I have also tried some of the artisanal EU shaving soaps; with one exception, I have found them over rated and way over priced. However, I have not found Supply Tallow Shave Soap inferior in any way. Moreover, it is a GREAT buy. If it were from an EU country and had it been in production for 100 years, it would be wildly praised in the various shaving forums.
