Shame it's no longer made. I've just finished mine and at least I'm left with that lovely pot.

I almost though I had an NOS product, because I ordered two La Toja shaving sticks from eBay for less then € 0,50 because PayPal gave me a € 10 discount code 
So this one we are talking about is the same soap as in the stick?

Hi FactorM, I don't k7now of a British stockist, so it's maybe a case of getting someone you know who is going to Spain or Canaries to pick you up a couple. Or, if you ever deal with Gifts & Care the postage for a couple of sticks along with your order is well covered by the TSR discount & service is gr8.
It's similar but superior to La Toja (imo) with its ingredients of glycerine, lanolin &9 tallow. just a clean, soapy smell, dense lubricating lather with loads of slip and seems to work well in harder water than we have here in West Dunbartonshire. I believe that it was reintroduced following representations from some of our Spanish shaving colleagues and is an old recipe.

Really nice mild on the skin and with a light refreshing scent. Along with arko is the travel soap of choice, actually the La Toja is my favourite travel soap due to the convenience of the stick container/case it comes in. If you haven't tried it give it a go guys.
Ideally with and EJde89 La Toja soap stick, New Forest tubby and village barber balm this is my preferred travel combo. :angel:

I've got 3 sticks in my stash, need to get another Ikea Grundtal tin and it will join the Arko and Derby in my every day rotation, looking forward to trying it.
