This is one of my favorite inks that I own! Has a hint of green-leaning blue when wet, but dries with very little green/teal undertones. The dark blue shading is gorgeous and has some hints of purple.Has a nice, lubricated flow and is a very well-behaved ink, even on cheap paper.Waterproof ink that is safe to use with watercolors (!). I also kept this ink in a TWSBI ECO-T for... a couple years... without cleaning it (sorry to my pen) and the pen was totally fine, and wrote again after some scribbling.

Writes wet, really water resistant, doesn't smudge, doesn't take too long to dry, and great color. What's not there to love?

I love how well this ink works on cheap paper. It works great on mead 5 star paper which means I don't have to purchase expensive fountain pen friendly paper. I like how the color isn't pale. It's easily legible. It's lovely honestly. I like how it shades, but not too much, making it look fabulous while being easy to read. It flows and feels great to write with. I like how it's a pen friendly ink while being permanent.Will definitely get a bottle of this. One of the best inks I've ever used.
