As set out in the summary of this collection page, sheep or lamb tallow has qualities different to that of beef tallow, it is a new avenue we have strolled into and we will continue to explore and experiment with it. This base will also be presented in the aluminium container once we have finalized the last touches, for now we do not anticipate any changes to the base formulation, but there may be some cosmetic changes in terms of colour and apperance. Please do try this new product and leave detailed reviews, the more we get the better know which way to steer the ship, to us it is a great shaving soap base, but chances are it may very well be improved upon, recipes can be adjusted in millions of ways, and it is unlikely we have found the best possible base in the first few tries, with your help this one may venture into the hallowed halls of talented tallow titans.
This soap is similar to Kletterkees, sweet, fruity and strong, we also have a berry on the way, which will make it three fragrances for those who likes a whaft of sweetness drifting from the bathroom to the bedroom while slashing stubble. The Lemoenbossie breaks the sweet smell of the apple just enough and Sandalwood adds that solid base note that carries through when the sharp edge of sweetness dissapates.
Ingredients: Mutton tallow, H20, Sodium Hydroxide, Potassium Hydroxide, Stearic Acid, Castor oil, Kalahari Melon oil, Virgin cold pressed Coconut oil off the tree, fragrance oils and essential oils.
Expect the following; Great slickness both during the shave and residual, a lightly fragranced soap in earthy, spicy fragrances. it can be quite a thirsty soap when properly loaded, so you may consider dripping some water on your brush after a minute or so of lathering and then transfer to your face for a beautiful shiny, sheeny lather.
