This Bourbon Brick of Soap Is as Blue‑Collar as It Gets

Look, you don’t get a name like “Big Ass Brick of Soap” for making girly scents. Duluth Trading’s bourbon soap is built for guys who sweat hard, work harder, and still expect to smell good doing it.

Crafted with 90‑proof Buffalo Trace bourbon mixed right into a man‑sized 10 oz. bar, it’s made for folks who appreciate leather, oak barrels, and suds that keep going as long as you do.

🧼 Why It’s Kickass:

  • Massive bar, serious value – At roughly three times the size of a normal soap, this thing lasts weeks, maybe months. Cut it in half if it's too brute.

  • Straight‑up rugged formula – Beef tallow mixed with coconut oils and glycerin, triple‑milled for a thick lather that scrubs dirt off without leaving your skin feeling like sandpaper

  • Bourbon scent, not perfume – Smells like oak barrels and aged spirits, not cheap cologne sprayed on ham sandwich. Masculine, not overpowering.

  • Veteran-backed – Inspired by the GI soap bricks from Korea, it gives a nod to that tough legacy. A portion of proceeds supports vets.

🗣️ Real‑world Feedback from Reddit:

One user joked:

“This soap lasts a long time... basketball players with enormous hands would really enjoy this soap.”

And another called it:

“The worst goddamned prison/locker soap ever; you will drop this big bastard over and over until it shrinks.” Clearly not for traveling—pure blue‑collar territory. Reddit

💬 What Users On Retail Sites Are Saying:

  • “Absolutely loved it. Makes me feel exhilarated. Also, smells really good. Lasted a very long time.”

  • “Men don’t smell like flowers… They smell like leather and tobacco leaves.” One reviewer nailed the vibe.

  • A minor gripe—some users said it can be slippery or dry skin out. Others warned not to leave it flat and wet—this brick sticks.

⚠️ Heads‑Up Advice Before You Grab One:

  • It’s heavy and huge – Not ideal for a gym bag or a travel pouch unless you bring a soap-holder.

  • May dry your skin if you’re dry‑skinned – Consider a lotion afterward.

  • Not a delicate scent – If you expect a flowery shower gel vibe, this isn’t it.

👷 Field-Tested Take:

Used it after a dusty roofing job and felt cleaner than I looked. Still had a barn-sweat aroma locked into my clothes, but the soap cut through grime like a champ and lingered enough that the wife asked what smelled that good.

Keeps you fresh without compromise—just like your tools. And at around $9–10 for 10 oz, you're getting big‑bar value, especially during sales.

💬 Final from Your Blue Collar Boyfriend:

If you’re the kind of guy who doesn’t care for bubble baths or florals in the shower—this is for you. Rugged, smoky, powerful, and built to last. Drop it, roll it, rinse it off, and come back for more—just maybe use the holder.
