If you talk to many bricklayers and masons, they’ll let you know that the feel of mortar, that workability, that richness and creaminess, has changed over the past few decades.  As manufacturers introduce new materials to keep products at bare minimum prices the workability has suffered.  Enviro-Ment Masonry mortar, is for lack of a better term, a throwback to those old mortars that seem to stretch for miles  when you’re spreading them on a wall.  One of the benefits of being a manufacturer built by masons for masons is that when you want to create a product you want your customers to like, you’ve got your toughest critics right here at home.  When you get a trowelful of this mortar on a wall, you’ll say, man…. This is what mortar is supposed to feel like.
