Usually purple bugs me. This is really very nice--sort of "Eggplant". Many thanks!

Thanks for reminding me how much I like this ink.

It's a very concentrated ink and I love it. I can use it straight, which is close to black, or dilute it and it becomes a cool purple. Just brilliant.

Private Reserve Ebony Purple was the first bottle I bought in a long time. A very elegant colour that has lovely variation depending on which nib grade I use.

Do you ever feel that a pen or an ink represents you in some way? This one seems to do it for me.

Hmmm... an ink that represents me, that's just the perfect excuse to try and buy new inks.

I suspect the ink that represents me would be either one of the blue-teal iroshizuku inks eg. Ku-jaku, or a blueish purple that's quiet and elegant, not too loud but still vivid. Which one would that be?
