  4. Got it. Well the soap is definitely a soft soap. Not close to a cream at all. I acknowledge my heavy loading, but after only 4 lathers, it's hard to determine longevity. Another issue is that I have a ridiculously large rotation of soaps, so even soft soaps "seem" to last forever. Lastly, I am unfamiliar with DG soaps, so that's a strike-out in me being able to accurately answer your question. Sorry.

  7. Excellent report, Joseph. Ya, I saw the mention on another thread about this soap coming in. I assumed it was the same one.

  8. Glad you got to test Joseph! it's fun seeing products before they hit the market. Glad you announced before my post about seeing the name dropped elsewhere.

    Here? In 30DC Land? Weird is common. What's weird is trying to understand a webpage in another language. I guess you've conquered that?
    From Kulta Katrina's description;
    "Guests are not allowed to sit at the coffee table with the first invitation, but have to check out the tovi. Coffee culture is just that: behaviors, sayings and details that only a Finn can understand."
    OK, what's a tovi? From Juhla Mokka;
    "Juhla Mokka Tumma Paahto is a full-bodied, nutty dark roast."
    Dark Roast! The berry component sounds interesting, too.

  9. Made a few adjustments since last pic. Still needs another dip in the red . 20190924_180229.jpg
  10. It was called "Tobacco Lounge" Paul, and who said I forgave you?








    :rofl:
  11. Thank you, Joe.

  12. Correct, Andrew, but I must say that it doesn't seem like a "budget" soap.

  16. I knew others were going to try it too, so it was inevitable that the soap's identity was going to leak.

  17. Yeah i can understand English well enough, but it can be difficult to speak. I make mistakes for sure, but i hope everyone understands what i'm trying to say. Or atleast have a good laugh. :D

    Hmm, it's kind of hard to translate. Maybe the moment. Kind of short period of time. I can't think of better way to translate it.
    E. checked out the finnish version of the website, it's kind of badly translated to English. Check out the tovi doesn't really make sense. They are trying to say that you should kill some time acting like you don't want to be any trouble to the hosts and so on, but finally agree to have a cup of coffee.


    It can be decent coffee, but most of it is sold pre-ground. Can be issue to some people. Of course freshly ground coffee tastes better, but people love convenience.
  18. No it doesn’t. The big change will be the use of fragrance oils to control cost. I saw a label for the new soap on Instagram and the ingredient list was really nice and confirms our thoughts this is not a budget soap.
