Organics Studio Ink Edgar Allen Poe

Anyone using an ink named for Edgar Allan Poe is probably expecting a gothic tone and a bit of drama and this ink did not disappoint. It could certainly be called a blood red but without being gory or unpleasant to the eye, The scan came out a bid darker than the original. The ink was wet in my Jinhao 450 with a Fude nib and showed slight shading. In my FPR Dilli it was lighter and shaded better. The Dilli has been on the dry side and railroads a lot when flexed. I advanced ink through the feed to counter that and ended up with a nice big ink drop on the page. It definitely looked like a drop of blood. The ink behaved well on the Tops Docket Gold paper as well as on cheaper quality paper. The drying time could have been better but it was certainly within a usable range if you are careful, but might not be the best choice for lefties. This is by no means a bright red ink in my opinion it is subdued enough for full pages of writing. I would recommend it to teachers for grading, especially in language arts (how fun would that be?). I plan on buying a full bottle of this when my ink budget allows.

I have and like this ink too, although I don't remember the drying time (it's been a while since I used it). Thank you for the review!

Thank you.

The drying time wasn't bad. It dried in 8 seconds with a fairly wet pen. I would say it's not a good choice if you are looking for a quick drying ink but otherwise it's just fine.

 

I love the color and it behaves well. To me that's a win.
