Wonderful dip into sugar!

I originally got a sample of the Monteverde Iced Cookie with my initial fountain pen, I loved it so much I decided to get more of it when I was running low, I've been writing with this for a little bit now, though I'm still using my first pen, and I've only tried two inks so far, so I'm maybe not the best one to look to for advice. Loving this ink so far though! Certainly works smoother than the other ink I've tried, the India Ink I tried in my second pen was feet wet, and the pen kept getting gummed up, they are the same model pen, so I'm pretty sure that it was the ink, on the other side, Monteverde's Iced Cookie has not had ANY noticeable issues and I'd say it works wonders! Still not sure what water resistance is, so I'll just rate it medium, and I quite liked the fraction of a second it took to dry, even when doubling over a line you could see that shading as it dried!

My Favorite Ink

My favorite shade of ink. Others like it as well. A deep blue-green with good contrast, it looks good on either white or ivory paper.

lovely teal ink, but illegible with an M nib

Has good read back, I really liked the dark shade of the ink. However doesn't shade much and with a M Opus88 the ink spread out so much that I had to write very large letters to make them clearly readable. An e or an a or an o just closed up in its shape and became illegible. Glad that I only bought a sample.

How hard can it get

To open a bottle of ink Guess... very hard, like very very hard. The ink is not my style, too light I prefer something more concentrate, here we have a very light blue grey ... or maybe my nib wasn't wet enough, but still in my Waterman Concorde it was really hard to have a dark color.

FAQs about Bottled Ink

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.

What is shading, sheening, or shimmering ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Shading - A common (and often desired) result of a fountain pen ink pooling in certain parts of a letter when writing, so that the color and saturation of the ink appears different within a single letter or word. This characteristic cannot be achieved with ballpoint or rollerball pens and is a very appealing aspect of fountain pen use for those particularly drawn to all the pretty ink colors.

Sheen - Characteristic of a fountain pen ink where when ink pools another color can be seen on top of the ink, especially when looked at in different light angles using certain paper types. There is no way to guarantee an ink will sheen, but using a larger nib on a pen will help obtain sheening results in your writing.

Shimmering - Fountain pen ink that has small particles of glitter mixed in.

Is shimmering ink safe to use in fountain pens? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Yes! Shimmering ink is a great way to add some flare to your writing. We have found that a larger nib will showcase more shimmering particles while writing, but you can use any nib size and shimmering ink. All the ink we sell is safe for use in fountain pens.

You can learn more in our blog: How to Write with Shimmering Ink.

My ink smells funny, is it safe to use? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Generally yes! Ink does not smell good- it usually has a chemical smell, along with other scents such as sulfur, rubber, chemicals or even paint. However, as long as you’re not seeing anything floating in the ink, it should be safe to use.

It’s cold and my ink froze; is it safe to use? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Yes, frozen ink will not hurt your pen (after it’s thawed of course!) The issue with ink freezing is primarily a concern because certain glass bottles could break as the water-based ink expands, and then you’d have a mess!

What is your return policy for bottled ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We do not accept returns for ink that has been used. Otherwise, we accept returns on unused ink products for up to 30 days from purchase. You can read all our Return Policies here.
