    As a fellow Arkie (although I'm a transplant) I have to say a) that you make great products, b) it's great for you to support those in need, and lastly c) I'm curious as to your potential coffee roaster....

    Where are you at, if you don't mind me asking?

    As for the coffee, we just got the go ahead from the state today to proceed. We'd been holding off while the state worked out a tax incentive package for us for starting the business in rural area that's seen quite a bit of job losses over the past two decades. It's full steam ahead now and we hope to have the building restoration done within 6 months and start putting free coffee samples in with Stirling Soap orders shortly thereafter.

    Rod @ezlovan was just here, let's see.
    Rod, do you ship internationally? What would be the cost of shipping, if so?

    Do you have distributors outside continental US?

    If recall you are in UK, correct?
    I'm pretty sure there is no direct ship of products like aftershave that contain alcohol.

    Yes, sir. The Shaving Time Company in London. He carries our aftershaves, and also will have EdTs within the month.

    We do ship internationally again, but it's not really economical on most orders. We just don't get the quantity discounts that larger companies do. If an order is a certain size, I can typically get it in a box inside a flat rate envelope, and ship up to 4 lbs of product for $27.

    Put water on the Executive Man and mixed it all up. Ended up with lather.

    Still doing edge maintenance test on the Barbers Bride. A few laps on .1 micron cBN pasted nanocloth every 5 shaves or so. I'm not even counting anymore. This could go a while.

    Executive Man AS w/menthol. Long lasting scent, gotta be careful not to use too much.
