Central Texas Soaps. Never even got to try any.
A good shave is a small act of reclaiming order, a ritual of renewal . . . We all have moments when life becomes unruly. It’s fitting from time to time to recognize the quiet courage it takes to find one’s way back. — Bouki

It's been a while since these three threw in the towel, but you can add Reef Point Soaps, Cold River Soap Works, and Soap Smooth to the list.
EDIT: I see Cold River was already mentioned, but I thought of another couple - Storybook Soapworks and West of Olympia

I miss their soaps and aftershave, specifically the hill country dew and especially the Mr pepper.
Slightly off topic but.....
I am so disgusted with the aroma of Cella's new Crema Sapone (sandalwood, supposedly) that I am never, ever going to blind buy any fragrant shave soap again. I will probably give my tub to my barber as they like to use cremes for the back of the neck shave. Also has a very disappointing experience with a well respected artisan shave soap maker that was also a blind buy. I must be a lot more particular than some of the reviewers are. As a result, I will probably have room in my den for another soap by next summer. Shannon's Rust Belt soaps look good and are sort of local, I think there is a brick and mortar place that sells their products within driving distance. Hopefully they are still around by then!
