~ Enkida:

 

Thank you for such an entertaining and informative review.

I've never written with Montblanc Toffee Brown, therefore this was helpful to read.

The sketches are delightful!

Very entertaining review. Love it.

 

I have a bottle of this ink. Not my favorite at all. I just inked up my newly acquired pen with it and I already want to flush it out.

 

I like saturated inks and this brown is too relaxing for me.

Hey everyone! I inked up a pen with one of my last cartridges of MB Toffee Brown to see if I wanted to purchase a full bottle of it before the price hike / packaging switch / potential reformulation or discontinuation. The answer turned out to be no, but then I had a pen full of ink to get rid of. What better way to do that than a review amirite? This one is not as entertaining as my previous review. Blame the ink. It's not an entertaining ink! I also stopped halfway through the review because I had the bright idea to search for a solution to the Wateman Kultur nib dryout problem, and lo and behold, FPN answered (with "glue"). So I dropped everything, glued up my pen, and came back to this review two days later, hence the page break, and perhaps the slightly darker ink after the page break. n.B.: Lamy Safari caps fit on Waterman Kultur pens, in case you need to seal an inked pen in a pinch.

 

This is the water test:

 

 

This has GOT to be the BEST review I've ever had the pleasure of reading.
This was better than a youtube video review...wow!!
EPIC!

This review was excellent. Thank you!

 

Anyone know if the bottles of this are now discontinued??

For me paper does make a difference in I look for shading, which Toffee does on 90g or better paper.

(I imagine 80g Rhoda, but Rhoda is new to me since I last used this ink. & mine is 90g.)

 

The only place there was any shading, was on the Clairefontaine.... Triomphe or Velote? Triomphe is a bit slicker.

 

You have convinced me not to use it to mix. Sadly the 1/4th bottle is all I got left and I'm not paying E23.00 for a new bottle. I bought it back in the dark ages, new in the brand new big 60ml bottle at E13...up from small bottle E12.

This is my favorite ink review format   Unfortunately I have Pilot Tsukushi and Ina-Ho I have to finish before I can buy another ink from that color...
