In honor of Spain's historic win in UEFA 2012's Euro Cup tournament yesterday, I decided to feature the four final teams in my shave. I hadn't used a boar brush in a while, and don't have much from Portugal, so the Semogue was an easy choice. Similarly, I'm a bit thin on Spanish options - either a Filly or La Toja, but who could resist that Manatiales soap? The German choice was easy because the Wacker was feeling abandoned in the back of the shave den. And after vetiver yesterday, the Lorenzo Villoresi was a no brainer! The lather today from the Manantiales was quite possibly the best I've gotten from this exceptional soap! And I was left CBS after two passes.
