guess the ink!

[Sailor Kenshin]

So... Akkerman? Ack, almost as bad as Sailor in terms of any chance of me getting the name right. Um, Passage Blauw?

Ack! Not Akkerman. What further hints might I drop.....ah. The vendor is US-based.

I am confused. I've never heard of Chesterfield before, so I looked them up. Everything I see says they are UK-based, not US-based.

They're SOLD by xfountainpens, which is US-based. And they're being discontinued, hence my purchase of, well, way too many bottles just recently.

Got it. When you mentioned that they might be made by Diamine I expected it was more like the Anderson Pens inks which are sold under their own name.

Diamine Ochre?

'fraid not. Not familiar with Ochre, but I think it may be a tad yellower than the mystery ink.
