  1. Ferris Wheel Press – Storied blue The brand is known for its savvy marketing and elegant ink bottles. This ink belongs to the Bookshoppe series, with Peter Moss (Green) Wonderland in Coral. You can read more about it here: https://ferriswheelpress.ca/products/storied-blue It’s a nod to Hatchard’s the oldest bookstore in England. In a nutshell, this dry ink was most enjoyable with a B nib, but more specifically for art work, i.e. washes. Otherwise as I prefer water resistance and saturated inks, for me it's a pass. Let's start with the delicious chroma: Writing samples: It doesn't like Hammermill 20 lb with almost all nibs: Photo: (the lighting is not a best) Comparison: Washed off kitty after 10 seconds under running water (nice effects though) and finally an art work, a nod to the ink's name and the nursery rhyme. Talens Notebook (12 x12 cm/4,7"x4.7") · Pens used: Pilot Kakuna Ef/Stub, Lamy Safari (EF/F/M/B), Kanwrite Ultra-flex. · What I liked: Lovely pale colour for writing poetry, and enjoyed doing washes with it. · What I did not like: In general, I prefer inks are water resistant or more saturated. · What some might not like: Dry ink. Flow issues with flex nibs, it doesn't like cheap paper. · Shading: Yes. · Ghosting: On cheap paper · Bleed through: Same as above. · Flow Rate: Wettish. It didn’t flow well with Kanwrite. · Lubrication: Dry · Nib Dry-out: None · Start-up: None · Saturation: Unsaturated · Shading Potential: Massive. · Sheen: None · Spread / Feathering / Woolly Line: No · Nib Creep / “Crud”: No. · Staining (pen): No · Clogging: No · Cleaning: Easy · Water resistance: It doesn’t really make a difference does it? · Availability: 3X5 ml (3 different inks), 38/85 ml bottles. Please don't hesitate to share your experience, writing samples or any other comments. The more the merrier
