In large swabs on Tomoe River paper the ink looks more purple than pink and feathers quite a lot.

I used a Pelikan M400 White Tortoise with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink had an average flow.

Overall, I enjoyed the color, but I was surprised that this ink feathered a bit on Tomoe River paper. This ink isn’t a must-have for me, I’ve used up my sample but I don’t need a full bottle.
