Ol' Kentucky Formula T Shaving Soap – Tallow & Shea – Limited Edition

The smoothest shave on the top shelf.

There are shaves, and then there are experiences. We took our richest, most structured soap base—Formula T—and infused it with the spirit of the American South.

Ol' Kentucky is a scent that commands respect. Inspired by the Kentucky Derby and the contents of a fine oak barrel, this isn't a novelty fragrance. It is a sophisticated, creamy blend of Bourbon, American Oak, Sandalwood, and a touch of Patchouli. It smells like a well-appointed study or the winner's circle.

The Base: Formula T We built this soap to perform. Formula T is our homage to classic American tallow soaps of the past.

• Tallow & Shea Butter: We blend animal tallow (for slickness) with heavy Shea Butter (for moisture) to create a dense, yogurt-like lather.
• The Cushion: This isn't airy foam. It provides a thick, protective layer that allows the razor to glide effortlessly, even against the grain.
• Post-Shave Feel: The Shea Butter leaves your face feeling conditioned and soft, never dry.

The Scent Profile:

• The Vibe: Rich, warm, and comforting.
• The Notes: A core of smooth Bourbon is rounded out by dry Oak, creamy Sandalwood, and a hint of powder. It pairs perfectly with a neat pour.

The Craftsman’s Promise:

• Limited Edition: This is a seasonal release. When the batch is gone, it returns to the vault.
• Made in AZ: Handcrafted in small batches in Chandler, Arizona.
• Satisfaction Guaranteed: If it doesn't offer the best cushion you've ever felt, we'll make it right.

Ingredients: Stearic Acid, Water, Tallow, Coconut Oil, Potassium Hydroxide, Glycerin, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Fragrance, & Sodium Hydroxide.

How to Use: Formula T is a thirsty soap. Load your brush for 30 seconds, then add water gradually as you build the lather on your face or in a bowl. You are looking for a shiny, high-gloss texture.

PRO TIP: Complete the Ritual. Don't mix your spirits. Pair this soap with the matching Ol' Kentucky Aftershave Splash or Balm for the full experience.

Full Scent Profile

Ol' Kentucky

Boozy. Oaked. Smooth.

Primary Notes: Bourbon, Oak Barrel, Sandalwood.

The Vibe: The official spirit of the Derby. This scent is an ode to the Bluegrass State and its most famous export. It captures the warmth of a rickhouse, where barrels of bourbon age slowly in the summer heat. It is rich, creamy, and deeply American.

The Profile: Crafted with bourbon at its core, this fragrance is smooth rather than stinging. We started with the whiskey note and blended it with a base of oak wood and sandalwood to replicate the barrel itself. A hint of patchouli and powder softens the edges, creating a sophisticated finish that smells expensive.

Who It’s For: The Connoisseur. Whether you are a whiskey enthusiast or just appreciate heritage goods, this scent resonates. It is perfect for a relaxing evening or a casual weekend. It smells like tradition.
