Egoistar Yellow Pumpkin

[visvamitra]

Egoistar is korean producer of inks. I know little about the company. They oofer good variety of fountain pen friendly inks. Sadly, it seems that ordering these inks is quite difficult due to Korea customs urestricting shipemnt of liquids.

Fellow pen enthusiats from Poland managed to procure four bottles through family and shared samples witjh me. Didi - thanks a lot! It was fun to test these inks. Also, I have to say I really enjoyed these inks. As samples were small and I used them in very wet pens (my flock of Kawecos with broad and double broad nibs), I won't be able to claim that the inks are problem-free in long term use. In short-term writing, though, I was impressed.

Yellow Punpkin looks nice but feels drier than other Egoistar inks. The flow is consistent and I haven't experienced any hard starts.

Seems like a great autumnal color--like orange leaves that have fallen and have begun to dry out.

Looks like an ink that would be worth trying if availability was easier - thank you.
