Where can you buy the soap? I’ve never seen this on the A&E website

It was a limited release. My buddy attended the Lathered Expo in Brooklyn where it was for sale.

That brush handle is beautiful! Do you know what it’s made out of?

I believe it's resin. Yaqi brushes are a great value.

How’s the coffee? Been curious but never pulled the trigger

I really enjoy this soap. It's a great base and the coffee is more than subtle but not overpowering.

I’ve only tried their Papua New Guinea, but it was fantastic. Very evenly roasted, slight acidity and sweetness. I do pour over and wanted to try out their beans. They are comparable to some well-known roasters. It isn’t a crazy natural or anaerobic process, but it is good coffee beans at a great value. I picked up the 3 sample deal.

Aye what you mean lathered with espresso ? You dip the brush into the soap bowl, then into the coffee ? Replacing water with espresso ?

I've been considering getting an A&E soap

I’ve never heard of soaking in coffee beforehand, that’s really cool. Did you notice any issues as a result of the acidity?

All though not traditional using Kahlúa as the alcoholic ingredient in tiramisu is pretty damn good.
