You're right - lovely shading.  Almost enough to make me like the color. :lol:  Thanks again!  Looking forward to any more you may have for us in the future. :)

Thanks for this review. You're right! As soon as I got it (weeks ago), I immediately found it's flow and lubrication great. Top notch. That soothes me in regard to its top price.

Awesome, congrats on the acquisition! This ink is something special. Once I save up a little I'm going to order a bottle of my own!

I normally shy away from food coloring inks but this color...is intriguing.  I may have to get a sample for myself.

Wait..."Food coloring"??
This is made from food coloring?
You mean I can make this at home!?!?!?!
No way!! Please do tell!!! I have packs and packs of food coloring from way back when I first got into fountain pens and would make my own colors at home mixing inks drop-by-drop.
The only good formula I ever came up with was for "chocolate-brown" and "golden-brown" though....hehe.

Thanks for posting this. I just came across this review. I picked up a bottle of this at my local boutique, but I haven't sampled it, yet.

I'm still trying to figure out how to list all my pens down here.

I'm saving up for a bottle myself next month (along with a few other MB inks MizGeorge has gotten me hooked on...lol).

It's hard to find. Some of the boutiques still have some.
