Its been a good many years since I was there, in fact it was still called West Berlin when I was, but I remember that on the K-Damn, the main St., there was many stores that carried such things. Hope I'm not dating myself here.![]()

Maybe one of the best shops in germany!
This weekend I hope to pick up some local stuff from shops in Wuppertal, Germany. Sofar only a Wilkinson Classic razor and some Palmolive and Wilkinson shaving cream that I haven't seen in the Netherlands (where I live) for a while, but isn't that special I think. But quite cheap, so friendly for the wallet to bring that stuff back with me.

I found this post and went to Berlin this weekend and had to write this up. I am sure this post has not seen any activity in a while but this story has to be told. I drove to Berlin (420km) 250 MI one way. I went to a shop called the English sent that someone here was kind enough to recommend. If you have the chance GO! I drove there (4 hours in the car) and was greeted by a VERY knowledgeable man that spoke pretty good English. My German sucks but I can get my point across with it. He let me try out and smell everything in his shop before I purchased. I even got a sample of a few products to try at home! This man was so kind and polite! My friend came with me and after her telling him we drove all the way (she speaks fluent German) he went upstairs to his house and returned with a bottle of Champagne and glasses. We spent a few hours in his shop talking. He entertained my friend with champagne while I shopped. The shop is the best I have yet to see here in Germany. He is well stocked with all the shaving products one would need and offers advice and recommendations on the products he sells. He does not take VAT (if you are not in the military ignore this). He just did not understand how to use them. I got a great deal on a shaving bowl by Muhle(Muohle) 10Euro ($14) and an Edwin Jagger brush and matching stand 60Euro. List on the brush alone was 87 euro. If you are around the Berlin area drop in and say hi you will be pleasantly surprised. Thank you for the people that replied to this post so that I was able to find this wonderful shop!![]()
