Mikebr: Edited 5/15/18: I just received a new violin that has synthetic strings on it (not the beginner steel strings). I used my old bow (also a fiddlerman carbon fiber bow) with dark rosin on it and it was rough and scratchy on the new violins strings. I rosined up my new bow with the holstein premium and it's much smoother. I will in fact continue to use this product. Tip: hold the base of the rosin with a cloth and it won't slide onto your fingers. I've increased my rating from 3 to 4 stars.
Full disclaimer: I'm just a beginner, so take my review with a grain of salt. I purchased Holstein Premium Violin rosin because I bought one of the Fiddlerman carbon fiber bows and also one of their violins. Their customer service is awesome (worth more than five stars) and I didn't mind paying a bit more to support their business.
I thought I might notice a higher quality rosin would make playing the violin easier. It doesn't. And I can't really tell a difference between this rosin and rosins a quarter of the price. Maybe as I advance in playing I will appreciate it more. That said, there is nothing wrong with the Rosin. I'm dropping a star because it's more expensive than rosins...

Janine claude aranas: wow. Just wow. I've had 3 rosins in my 3 years of violin playing... Hill, Jade and this one and this just tops the charts for me! Been using it for a month now so this should give me a fair review
pros:
-It's a beautiful red color that even its specks look like hinalayan salt (pink) and it is my favorite color ... Very elegant to look at from the magnetic case to the rosin. I love the design of the cake as I can easily evenly rub the rosin on my bow.
- LOVELY SOUND! It not only looks nice... It sounded to my violin warm, full and buttery smooth! My violin has a warm, 'masculine' yet sweet voice and I think this rosin enhanced it :) if my violin had a personality it would be the warm, sensitive and boy next door type :)
- Despite being a bit pricey, each penny was worth it as I'm sure this would last me ages (and even of it didn't, I'd still buy it again because it made my practice sessions quite enjoyable)
- superb customer service! The follow up was awesome!
- I love how I wouldnt need to use a different rosin for the cold and warm weather. VERY cost effective :)
Cons:
-Quite dusty BUT it doesn't bother me because it sure looks like snow and I'm not...

Z. MACKAYZ. MACKAY: Tip for first time use on brand new bow hair, give the rosin a little scuff to start with. I used a little file from a pocket knife. Otherwise you'll just be rubbing glass-smooth rosin on clean, dry bow hair and nothing will transfer. With a little scuff to get it started, rosin transfers with ease to new bow hair! First order arrived in a package with zero padding. Obviously it arrived destroyed. Was able to have second item shipped and arrived in one piece, even with very little padding. Just a small bit of padding would help avoid broken orders! Rosin performs great!
