Tallow + Steel

I decided to try the new T&S in my Moss small scuttle, it’s been a good 6 months since I’ve last used it! And the lather was just as great as it was when I used it without a scuttle. I might have to use this scuttle a bit more often now!!

For those that found the T&S scents to be too bold and complex the Sicily scent will give them an opportunity to try Tallow & Steel. I'd say the scent is the safest and likely the one that's going to appeal to the most people. Not the same but in the same wheelhouse as the older Rainforest and Grog scents that were universally well liked. Still complex and certainly not boring, but a safer scent if that makes sense. This one is very appealing and very enjoyable. Something I'd recommend as a "can't go wrong with picking this one" scent.

While I really enjoy the bolder scents this is one that I'll definitely use regularly. This is something that I suspect will appeal to everyone, so well done there in filling that gap.

Anyone else in the US still waiting for their new T+S Kyoto ordered on first Friday it was available?

Thanks David! I agree with you. I feel Sicily and Madagascar round out our core range quite nicely. There is certainly something for everyone now.

You are not alone! It seems to be taking longer in some areas - it could be due to the delays with customs as reported.

Yes, I purchased the Kyoto set within minutes of it going on sale. Unfortunately, I didn't realize the small packet shipping didn't include tracking and I had it shipped to my PO Box which is located about 20 minutes from my home in NJ (If my geo location helps anyone in relation to their own). I checked again today, but unfortunately it's not there yet

I’m in NYC.

Got my Kyoto set. I'm a bit disappointed. From the tub it's a weak scent (!) with a delicate yuzu and some resinous-marine notes. I hope to get more once lathered.

EDIT: The strenght is less strong than Himalaya to my nose.

Good news! Yesterday's lather was indeed a fluke. Today I paid closer attention to loading, water ratio, lathering... Perfect lather that was abundant, thick and very creamy with excellent primary and secondary slickness. Near as I can figure, I didn't have enough soap loaded yesterday.

EDIT: Forgot to add that I didn't really change anything as far as how I load, lather, hydrate, etc.
