Squid (pieces) in Ink Sauce
Hakase Sepia, to be sure!
Looks like Platinum Classic Sepia Black to me... :p
Although, reading the label, it is probably Stipula Calamo Sepia!
Yummm...the original Sepia...lol
Dip pens only, I think. It probably would support life languishing inside a fountain pen.

This is a cooking sauce and not meant for really writing.
I have seen this is in use in kitchens. EX. making colour full Pasta. They were using black colour.
The colour pigments comes from the Calamari or CUTTLE FISh pocket. ( remember their arsenal to camouflage to fight or flight action in water??? )
As I have seen the concentrated colour paste ( with all the veggie and oil mix ) the consistency is similar like to the texture of MARMITE. or Tar/tincture .
Very strong smell/aroma. Definitely this make pen nib bend as if it to say NOOOOOOOOO!!!:nono:
(I am very amazed why the ink producers did not adapt the apiculture to maintain and farm cuttlefish from the beginning of the art of writing.)
