What is your Favourite Soap Artisan

I've got quite a few soaps from a wide variety of artisans but the three I seem to use the most by far as of late have been

A&E
Grooming Dept
Noble Otter

still in first place is stirlingsoap
I was trying to buy ETHOS this summer, wrote a letter to Frank.
he asked my address and promised to give me a price.
but he suddenly disappeared. in the fall, I wrote him again to find out about his health, but this time he did not answer me at all.

I will start by saying I have very bad Asthma so many scents I can not tolerate. Here is my top choices.
ETHOS Lavender and Greenfresh are my favorites, but all are my number 1
PannaCrema Love all of them
Grooming Dept, but only the few simple scents
Sebum, but these take time to learn how to lather

I just did a search of your screen name and nothing comes up in my emails. Maybe your email address is completely different and if it is then please pm your email address because that certainly doesn’t sound like me! In the 6 months or so since launching ETHOS Grooming Essentials I’ve gotten hundreds of email messages and orders and I always respond to them. Maybe your emails went into spam or you had the wrong email address. If I accidentally missed one email it’s very highly unlikely I’d miss 3 of them from you and not respond. My business email address is
Ethosgroomingessentials@gmail.com so try it again and I’m sure if I get it you’ll certainly get a response! I’m extremely busy and sometimes it takes me a day to get back to people but I always respond so your post is very confusing to me and I think it would have been very easy to just pm me here on DFS as I’m always checking in on various threads as I’m not only in the wet shaving community as a business but also as a hobbyist.

Thank you for making me aware of your problem getting a hold of me and your interest in ETHOS Grooming Essentials products.

Best regards

Frank

Grooming Dept

ETHOS without a doubt

1 excellent soap with superb skin hydration
2 skin food/splash works better than any drying after shave offered by all other artisans
3 multiple scents or unscented if that’s your interest
4 multiple other shave options like Replenish, ice drops, first shave
5 custom scents available at reasonable costs not at crazy secret prices you can boast to your friends
6 owner Frank AKA Dragonsbeard takes a personal interest providing excellent customer service

Only Stirling comes close due to variety of products, constant availability, and owners superb customer service

There’s no reason for me to even continue with other soap makers that’s how good the above have been and I’ve tried plenty from inexpensive mass produced to limited runs of exclusive products and even European/US high end products

My Top 5 today:

Stirling
Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements
Mystic Water
Cooper & French

Tallow and Steel
