    It seems they are having three soaps available out of seven. After many failed attempts, I successfully managed to order a couple of these shaving soaps. It will be the very first time for me to try it. After having heard many good remarks about this soap on SRP forum (including not so good ones) I am quite curious to try it.

    They also have an English page about "lathering instruction". You can read it here: How to lather - PannaCrema

    As you can see, nothing special and nothing more than what we all know already.

    I must commend Panna Crema. I ordered yesterday and Pay Paled them immediately (love their built in currency converter.) Email this morning said it was shipped about 12:45AM my time (pacific). I wish I could say the same for a number of American suppliers, both direct and via eBay. Despite Panna Crema's low or limited production they are seemingly well organized.

    Same for me. I ordered my soaps yesterday and this morning I received a mail telling me they shipped my soaps. So far, it seems they offer a good and fast delivery service.
    Now let's wait for the soaps to be delivered. Unfortunately I am traveling right now and I will see them next week when I will go back home.

    Came back home and I found a small package waiting for me. The two PannaCrema shaving soaps I ordered some time ago have been delivered and now I can test, for the very first time, these two creams many wet shavers are talking about.
    As for the package, it is quite disappointing: a simple and very anonymous bag with no mention about the sender. Inside, of course, two small plastic jars containing the soaps I ordered. I will see soon how this soap performs with a brush and a real shave.

    I finally used PannaCrema shaving cream and here you can find my review for "San Francesco": http://straightrazorpalace.com/soaps...ml#post1193701
    A very good shaving cream but, in my opinion, a little overrated if compared to price and performance. However, a satisfactory and very good product. This "San Francesco" cream has a very pleasing smell which I personally like a lot.

    Here I sit. Waiting for my Panna Crema. It was shipped on the 23rd so I'm betting it will be here sometime this week. If it's like the other Italian soaps I have tried it ought to be a great product.

    I ordered one tub on the 20th and received it this week. I felt fortunate that the package made it to my place because there was only one label with my address and it was mostly peeled off the package. I had Namaste from the last batch and I bought Lavandotto from this batch. My impression is that this performs even better than earlier batches that also performed very well. A big A+ from me.

    Ok, my Panna Crema arrived today (Nostalgia, Vetiver and Lavandatto) but then so did some Al's Shaving Cream (Saigon) and Penhaligon's. (Severe SAD). Which one to try first? Decisions, decisions.
