I got my new Superior 25mm super badger brush yesterday and immediately went to bathroom to practice whipping up bowls of lather. Had more than enough for three passes this morning. All in all, a very fine first time out with this brush. The really good part is that it will just get better with practice.
Added to the time it does take to perform the shave ritual. That is the only downside.
The lather of the T&H soap is just as the name describes: luxurious. Really, really great performance. The scent of this soap is OK...at times I think I like it, and then it starts smelling a bit like Lysol (to my nose)...but the performance of this soap definitely overshadows my ambivalent feelings about the scent.
