This is my go-to ink.

I tried a few different green inks before this one and I have to say, this is by far my favorite ink color (not just out of the greens). It is bright enough to show it's green but easy enough to read. It's crisp and fresh. It performs well on every pen I have put this into (TWSBI Fine, Pilot Metropolitan Fine/Med, and Visconti Van Gogh Fine) always leaving enough color behind to be readable. There is a hint of yellow to it but I think that is what gives it the color I admire because it adds dimension. I'm incredibly happy to have found and tried this!

lovely color, limited use

I've tried a few green and yellow inks. This yellow green to olive is my favorite. It's fresh, varied and peaceful. Although I used the ink on various papers, my experience is limited to a Pilot stub nib. I like the ink on Tomoe River and non-fountain pen paper. Not on Rhodia or Clairefontaine. Waka-Uguisu flows well and might do well on more papers if used with a Pilot 74 or TWSBI stub.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which pens can accept this ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Any of these fountain pens will work with bottled ink. Typically, as long as the pen can be filled with a converter, has a built-in filling mechanism like a piston, or can be eyedropper-filled, it can accept bottled ink. You can also refill an empty ink cartridge from bottled ink using an ink syringe.
