    Try the ozark mountain , it's really nice and it's counterpart pig trail is the body soap. , all of rods products are great and if it's a scent you don't like just tell him ,, he's great to deal with. And thanks to our good friend Lince I am digging the margaritas in the arctic!! And now I have 3 more samples to try Rod threw in. Tc. I use MDC every other day , but the other days I rotate Stirling!

    I have yet to try these soaps. It's been on my list but I haven't gotten to it yet. I've been preoccupied with Barrister and Mann as of late. They are also a small production vendor that happen to make two soaps that I absolute love. When I make room in my rotation for these, they are next on my list.

    I don't know why I'm so drawn to this brand, but I think I have around a dozen of them, and about /3rds of them smell and lather superbly. However Rod the owner has said himself that some of his early batches (from which I have a few) didn't cure long enough so they don't lather as well. I have left some out unopened to fix it per his suggestion, and it worked. Everything I've ordered since has been awesome. "Arctic tundra", "stirling spice" and "Ben Franklin" are my favorites. I probably use these soaps 3 or 4 days a week now!

    Really good soaps, especially for the money. I rotate a couple Stirling soaps with my MdC, PdP, and Harris, and don't miss a beat.

    I pulled out my Stirling Bay Rum today. I had not used it in a while and forgot how "dead on" the scent it. As usual, I got a good thick, slick lather and a great shave. Rod's Bay Rum is a perfect match for Krampert's Bay Rum!

    I got a sample puck of Stirling/rose back in April at the Asheville meet up; opened it up this week - three shaves so far. Scent is subdued, lather easy to make, moisture and glide are excellent. Tallow scent is obvious but inoffensive in this soap.

    I have two samples that give such great lather I ordered 3 pucks and two more samples.

    This tallow based soap is great for glide and cushion.
