Longer writing:

I used an Edison Collier Persimmon Swirl with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink had an average flow.

Overall, this is a nice basic orange with some shading. I know Kaweco is in the middle of swapping in new bottles so this is out of stock at a few retailers but hopefully we will see the new bottles in stock soon!
