    It was one the the first two brush offerings if I remember correctly. It is a 22mm and the 'lil brudder" to the Kong.

    I have the Sandalwood Balm and really like it. The soap and AS are on my to-buy list.

    I went Glacial Spearmint all the way this morning - bath soap, shaving soap, and balm. My body and face will need all day to thaw out! Lolllllllllllll

    I think for tomorrow it'll be Sharp Dressed Man or Barbershop. I was thinking of using the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo but I think I'll lay off the menthol for a day.

    Scots Pine Sheep provided a wonderful shave this evening. As good as Stirling's standard line is, their sheep soap far exceeds it in performance.

    It's quite possible that my next Stirlin' soap will be something unscented. But there's a lot of Barbershop to finish off first!

    The Scots Pine is nothing short of fantastic. It is pine, through and through. The sheep soap is the best soap base I have ever used, and probably accounts for half of my shaves now. It could easily be my only soap.

    Update: Mandy laughed at me and told me that it isn't pumpkin pie season. :(

    I forgot she bakes actual sugar pumpkins and makes her own filing. She doesn't like to use canned pumpkin. She did offer to make me a razzle berry pie, but I declined. I really was craving pumpkin.

    I could not have enjoyed the Sharp Dressed Man soap more this morning. It was wonderful.

    I was looking over and analyzing the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo bowl that I'm using at the moment. I think there's just enough soap remaining for one more shave. What I might do is to scrape out the remnants and put them in a new ET bowl from last year.

    I think I am just as bummed as you are!!

    Quick question, Does Scotts Pine Sheep and Coniferous soaps have the same scent just different bases?

    I see already I'll have to try two or three more soaps from Rod this summer. They are:

    Ozark Mountain
    Iced Pineapple
    Coniferous (possibly)
    Executive Man (possibly)
    Grapefruit Menthol

    The Grapefruit Menthol, Ozark Mountain, and Iced Pineapple are definite for me. I'd also be interested in the Piacenza or Arkadia.

    Ohhhhhhhh, by the way - we must watch how we say Arkadia because if we say "Arhidia" it's a nasty word in Greek! Lolll

    Ozark Mountain is a great scent. It puts me in mind of my Pap's hunting cabin. Smells of pine, dirt, moss, and decaying leaves. It's an instant hike through the woods without leaving the house.

    A real outdoorsy scent, yes?

    I could go for that.
