Ink Review #1339: Taccia Sunset

Taccia Sunset is from the Lip Color collection. This ink was more popular earlier this year, but now I can’t find it in stock anywhere.

The color:

Sunset is a vibrant coral pink.

Swabs:

In large swabs on Tomoe River paper the ink has a little bit of gold sheen.

Writing samples:

Longer writing:

I used a Sailor Pro Gear Sparkling Pink with a broad nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink had an average flow.

Overall, this ink is a little better behaved than the other Lip Color inks, and is one of my favorites from the set. I’m a sucker for a good coral pink.
