Pitty they'll stop making this soap, it's very nice and you can almost feel the salty mineral content

Maybe I shouldn't muck around getting a 6/8?

No, you need several of everything, actually ... Lol (seriously though ;D). In general I prefer 11/16 to 8/8 sizes, but sometimes I can go for other sizes too

What Blix said, there's only one La Toja Manatiales, or rather was

I'm still really just a grasshopper, you know :-)

Dear Carl, shaving soaps doesn't come in tubes, that's cream!
The Manatiales is the wooden bowl pictured in his post, with a very nice puck of soap inside.
