Ink Review #2618: Ferris Wheel Press Majestic Maple Syrup

Today’s ink is Ferris Wheel Press Majestic Maple Syrup from the Woven Warmth collection. My sample came from Vanness Pens, but you can find it at a few different retailers.

The color:

Majestic Maple Syrup is a light maple brown.

*For my swab cards I use a Col-o-ring by Skylab Letterpress, a medium Pilot Ishime and a Mabie Todd Swan.

Swabs:

In large swabs on Tomoe River paper the ink lots of champagne shimmer.

Writing samples:

Let's take a look at how the ink behaves on fountain pen friendly papers: Rhodia, Tomoe River, and Leuchtturm.

*For my writing samples I use:

Dry time: 30 seconds

Water resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

Other properties: medium shading, no sheen, and champagne shimmer.

On 20 lb copy paper the ink did pretty well, just a little bit of feathering and bleeding in the flex nib.

Comparison Swabs:

Majestic Maple Syrup is lighter than Ferris Wheel Press Workshop Wishes. Click here to see the brown inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Pelikan M200 Gold Marbled with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has a dry flow.

Overall, I love the color but it can be too light in smaller and drier nibs. I wish it had a wetter flow but I still love the color.
