Zuiderpark Blauwgroen (24) - Pw Akkerman

[visvamitra]

Few years ago PW Akkerman started to offer ink private label. The thing that makes their inks special is cool bottle. The colors are nice as well and it remains mystery who makes them for Akkerman.

The rumor has it the mysterious ink maker is Diamine. My experience with these inks makes me believe that's the case.

Zuiderpark Blauwgroen is nice ink that's VERY similar to Diamine Teal (I don't have a sample so I won't be able to compare them).

If that's not Diamine Teal, I'll drink a bottle of it. Although I imagine it wouldn't taste as nice as Eau de Nil, this is one of my favourite inks to use.

 

Stellar review as always, your reviews are always eyecatching and informative.

I've had my eye on this ink, so thanks!

 

The chromatography reminds me of some beasties I've seen under a microscope.

Visimatra, I really like to read your reviews, all of them!

 

I also like that language-themed writing sample - and I am wondering how you pick the text. This one in particular is quite funny as you have picked a text in a Flemish dialect, which, in my perception, contrasts nicely with the sense of Dutch respectability I associate with Akkerman (and The Hague in general).

Well - usually I look for some poems , prose ot tomgue twisters in the given language. This time I've found this tongue twister and although I don't know the single word in dutch I liked the way the letters are connected and the way I imagine that would sound
