KYIM Iceman with Grog by Kentucky Mudworks
Information from Stone Leaf Pottery:
This one I’m particularly excited about, because Iceman is one of my favorite clays! Dip your hands into a porcelaneous stoneware that’ll blow your mind. With its plasticity and gorgeous ivory finish, Iceman’s great to throw, Iceman with Grog to hand-build, but neither is exclusive to either category—they both work great! Iceman with Grog is made with 60 mesh sand, which gives the smooth body an extra oomph. Iceman on its own is a silky, workable clay, epitomizing Kentucky Mudworks’s signature plastic vibe. A duo that’ll change your making game, don’t miss out! Snag a bag of each while supplies last!

Information from Kentucky Mudworks:
This is the same claybody as Iceman, but with 6% added grog for increased tooth. More forgiving than standard Iceman, it is a fan-favorite for larger throwing projects and hand building. Also for potters who just like a little more "structure" or texture to their throwing clays. See Iceman description below for more information.
KyMudworks' premium white stoneware. It is a pleasure to throw and durable when fired. Does not get too soupy if you throw with a lot of water. Super plastic but great for hanbuilding as well as throwing.
Fires to a very light grey/off-white. Glazes love Iceman. Excellent color response and good glaze fit with the vast majority of KY Mudworks glazes and many other commercial glaze brands.
Matures cone 6, but will have acceptable performance as low as cone 5. Can be pushed to cone 7 slow fired.
