Blackstone Daintree Green

Recommended Posts

A while back, probably last year, the JustWrite Pen Co. worked at developing some inks for the Australian market, and while the selection is small it's quite nice. These inks are especially noted for their sheen. The Daintree Green is inspired by the Daintree Rainforest so you won't find a murky green here. This ink reminds me of the RO Spearmint, but a different color of course, more yellow, less blue. This ink has a really nice clarity of color that sometimes seems lost.

 

I didn't have any problems with the ink. It should be readily available in Oz from JustWrite and in the US from Anderson Pens. If you like the brighter greens, you might want to give this one a try. While I'd prefer the mythical Green Cashmere this is a good summer's day ink.

Thank you for your review as always, it is very thorough and informative. I have been using this ink for a week or so and absolutely love it. I am more often than not, reminded of Mont Blanc Irish Green which is one of my favourites after Diamine Sherwood. I really like the jewel tones of Daintree as well as its wetness.

If there is righteousness in the heart, There will be beauty in character. If there is beauty in character, There will be harmony in the home. When there is harmony in the home, There will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, There will be peace in the world. Bhagawan Shri Satya Sai Baba

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
