HARD tallow

[bandeauRouge]

Wont lie, my favorite soft tallow soap is from Stirling Soap, the unscented one i tried was good. did go rancid smelling after say 8 months of heavy use.

But im wondering if a hard tallow based soap even exists in the world anymore. Le Pierre Lucien was called a hard soap but the stuff I got in a sampler was more like warm butter.

Otherwise, discontinued Scottish Fine Soaps or MWF of which stocks are still out there.
... and, of course, vintage from the London Cartel comes up every now and again.

This is a bit of an odd one, I've got the one you mentioned and I've been using mine for a while and it's fine. Generally soaps, whatever the consistency or formulation go rancid if they haven't dried out properly.

Something you could do with the Stirling is scoop out a tiny bit and lather it up in a shaving bowl. This is something I do with all my softer shaving soaps.
