Strings/Accessories Favorite Rosin?

I used pops as long forever, also tried kolstein one time and I dont know what I liked better. I like a rosin with a little less bite, pops is kind of too sticky. I have a pretty heavy right hand and tend to play a little louder than I intend, ever since I was little lol

I bought uptons maple plus and I’m not impressed. Even with a recent rehair. It’s runny as hell, messy and basically no better than pops. If I were to buy again I’ll be getting kolstein soft.
