    Default The manliest shaving soaps ever!

    Wet Shave Soap- Whiskey

    Wet Shave Soap- Tobacco

    It says they are restocking. I'm placing an order for whiskey anyways.

    EDIT: Never mind, I have to wait until they are back in stock..

    My vote would go to the Fitjar Telemark shave cream. This cream looks like dry mud and when you whip up lather, it smells like Elk meat smoking over an open camp fire.

    I just looked up Telemark:
    The rich smell of sunburnt timber cabins treated with pine tar. The scent of a man just returned from chopping wood. Moss and forest, a hint of resin and wood smoke. This fragrance is not for everyone.
    I believe you are correct! Now, if only one would make a scent of a man who just got back from chopping wood while drinking whisky and is now smoking a cigar while cooking elk...

    Hey, a shout-out to Midland, Texas, from a Washington, D.C. political refugee (well, political hack) who spent ages 4 - 8 in Midland. Would love some of that outdoor man fragrance, btw.

    I know lot's of you haven't tried it, but Xpec is a very manly soap indeed. It has a very complex fragrance. It's more like a cream, but sold as a soap. You can't get it currently, so don't try. I did receive an email from Milan Italy, believe it or not, Some girl named Fabrizia, Sounds hot...Anyway, here's an a bit..

    "Following your request on the Xpec Shave Soap, I would like to inform you
    that the brand Xpec and all its references is currently subject to a
    restyling.

    I'm not sure what that means exaclty, because it was awesome the way it was, I really hope they don't change the soap itself, maybe just the packaging, which was kinda lame...

    By the way, you can order these products from West Coast Shaving as they now carry Portland General Store. I ordered directly from PGS and have the Tobacco on the way.

    That was fast. Keep an eye on their Etsy storefront here:

    portlandgeneralstore on Etsy

    They also have some info on B&M stores that might carry their products. Maybe one is near you.
