  • Lather: Nordic shaving - Coffee

For today shaving I tried to think something really unusual and unexpected in kitchen. Like stippled DE blade to wooden spatula, make lather in blender, to broke oven glass to use it like blade to shave my self, bake Lather Coffee pie, to brew my own aftershave and etc. But is Sunday. I am in my mountain house and I need to enjoy this last weekend morning and I am to old for this shit!!! And even I don't drink Coffee. I am not a Coffee person. I was so impatient to make battle between my champion Mühle R41 and new arrival Razorock Lupo and can wait end of the games so I decided to make the things that I want. After all I make this to enjoy wetshaving. OK ... OK.... To be everything correct I do it in kitchen. Absolutely even result! But I'll give advantage to Lupo. Holds a blade more solid. There is a little play in blade in R41. Amazing BBS. Great shavers. Jari from Finland make this soaps. Really great guy!!! I have a contact with him a few times. Great costumer care! Awesome dude!!! I have almost all soaps except this one. I borrowed from my friend Ivo. Like I says I don't like coffee. But other scents are wonderful! Gives Natural feeling !! You have to try it! Coconut base soap with lanolin. Good slickness and cushion. Lost a little bit from original strength of scent but really little bit. The other scents that he produce "Absent" "Birch" and "Citrus and ginger " are amazing. Definitely you have to try them. And yes I used my homemade aftershave with vodka and coffee. Was awful! Doesn't smell like coffee. More like some sour highly alcohol liquid. If some of artisans read this please tell me how you make this great aftershaves!!!

P.S. I almost every day or when I am inspired make video and link it to some sentence but to be more clear I'll link again like "video".
