Will you be providing shave notes on the ones you've liked best?

I'll be doing a few videos on my YouTube channel discussing them all. I'll post it in this thread. I hope to make the first video this week.

The Tweeds of March (now April) shave 21.  Not officially a shave soap, but I was given a puck of this a few years ago and remember it wasn't too bad.  My memory was correct.

Just a thought. With all the money you've spent on this genre of soap you could probably have just bought a bottle of Creed.
