We are powering through some orange inks today-our next ink is Diamine Peach Haze. I purchased my bottle of ink from Cult Pens. Peach Haze is one of those inks that’s just difficult to color correct accurately. I spent a lot of time trying to get the color spot on, and this was the closest I could get.

Peach Haze is a beautiful coral orange with a heavy pink undertone.

Longer writing:

I used a medium Pelikan M605 White Transparent on an ivory Hippo Noto Notebook. The ink had an average flow. I really love this ink/pen/paper combo.

Overall, I love the color of this ink. If you haven’t noticed by now, I seem to have a thing for coral inks. It’s well behaved, and pretty affordable too.
