I know this isn't an ink that any of you will be able to run out and buy on the interwebs, but I wanted to post my first ever ink review anyway! I've had to wait almost a WHOLE WEEK to fill a pen with this bad boy! This, and one other bottle, were "day after my birthday" gifts from my wife while we cruised the french quarter last week. French Quarter festival is this weekend, and I must say, this Burgundy color suits the festival just fine!
Like OldSchoolYoungin, I'm beginning to prefer inks with much less saturation than most Noodler's offerings. This is one such ink. It almost seems like a homoginization of BSIAR, Noodler's Burgundy, and Noodler's Maroon. It writes WET, with almost a 20 second dry time on Rhodia. It does dry almost instantly on cheap paper, and the color is nice, but not much character. I hope to get some larger bottles of more offerings by Papier Plume, and when I do, you can be sure samples will be included in some PIFs/Traveling boxes.
