    I only have 13 wonderful Stirling soaps, but I would put all on mt Glacials at the top of the list. Solid products, solid results, solid vendor!!!!

    I personally find Yeti Snot to be a frigid soap, but the Glacials are more frigid. Yeti Snot is tougher to lather and lacking in skincare. I do agree with you with the Snake Bite. It's terrific.

    Oh man... How about this?

    Hot day? Glacial Lemon Chill
    Cold evening? Hot Apple Cider
    Evening alone? Ben Franklin
    Date Night? Sandalwood

    There are just so many of them that I really enjoy. I could fill out those four categories four different ways, and still call them my favorite Stirlings.

    I thought y'all might like to see what Rod Lovan from Stirling looks like. I got to meet up with Rod in Austin before he moved back home to Arkansas. FYI-In case you didn't know, he is retired Army.

    I have several Stirling soaps but my favorites would have to be Island Man, Sharp Dressed Man and Ozark Mountain

    Too many soaps, not enough beard.

    I haven't tried the Glacial soaps, yet. It's now on my buy list. I mainly use the menthol stuff during hot weather. So, I might wait a little while.

    My favorites are Gin and Tonic, Lime, Lemon Chill and Naked and Smooth. Margaritas in the Arctic has grown on me as well and I have a lot of others that I like. My top favorite was the original Glacial from a couple of years ago, it was super cold and very minty, more peppermint than other mints. I got the wintergreen one and didn't care for the wintergreen scent and it doesn't sound like the one I liked is going to be made again.

    Gin and Tonic is a great one! I bought a bottle of the splash too, and put about six pounds of menthol crystals in it. Awesome!

    The Glacials are soaps I cannot live without now. I need them like a person needs to breathe!

    Yeah, there is something about them in the summer. A shower with a Glacial bar soap (or Rosemary Mint), and then a shave with a glacial, followed by glacial splash and maybe balm? Oh, wow. Sit in the A/C with a cold bottle of beer and... Chill Out. So to speak. :)

    Soo many soaps, so few whiskers. Major dilemma.

    Rods products r incredible.

    Soaps splashes and don't leave out the balms. I'm a big fan of them.

    Bar soaps r rotated thru all the sinks in my home.

    For women the lotions and lip balms r always a hit here. Every order I place is always hijacked and somehow grows!

    Very good products at a very good price.

    I'm a big fan of all I have tried. Only soaps I haven't bought r the face freezers.

    Well, there goes the theory about never buying shave soap from a guy with a beard! Cause I love Sterling soaps!

    Sharp dressed man. But nowadays Stirling is out of my rotation.

    This morning I enjoyed the Glacial Lemon Chill so much. Did it ever produce lather porn with a borderline-painfully cold freeze, yet its skincare is so gentle and soothing. All the Stirling soaps I have are so skin-friendly.

    I've tried the barbershop, sharp dressed man, clubman, and gatlinburg.

    Barbershop > sharp dressed man > clubman > gatlinburg

    Gatlinburg is by far the worst scent I've smelled

    Executive man and sharp dressed man are the best stirling scents in my opinion. I use both alot. Love the slickness and face feel of stirling.
