I have to admit to somewhat conflicting opinions about this. On the one hand, I really like the old Floris and Penhaligon's tallow soaps, especially Floris No. 89 and Penhaligon's English Fern. But I also like a few of the modern ones, such as RazoRock P160 and Son of Zeus and Stirling Executive Man and Tuscany.

- agree with the older Penhaligons. Haven't had a chance to try tallow Floris.
I also like the older AOS tallow soaps. These are hard to beat.

It all starts and stops with Haslinger for me.

I appreciate how quickly a vegan soap can lather, and sometimes I crave that "clean slick" feeling, but nothing beats the creaminess of tallow. Tops for me right now:

Barrister & Mann
Tabac
CRSW
D.R. Harris

Though reading through this thread I now have Reef Point and some Mickey Lee samples in a cart online... dangerous...
David : DE shaving since Nov 2014. Nowadays giving in to the single-edge siren call.

Isn't Cella an Italian non-tallow shaving soap?.

Hi Clayton, I believe that Cella is a tallow soap actually.

Mike's Natural Soaps - First artisan soap I tried and I still use Mike's quite a bit.
Barrister & Mann - I just picked up a couple recently. Why did I wait so long?!?! Great soap!
Shannon's
Mystic Water
PannaCrema

I have several of the classic commercial tallow soaps and use them some, but I find myself gravitating towards the artisan soaps.
