After buying more ink than I will use, I finally realized that the way to try inks without going bankrupt is samples.
Anyway, having a go to ink is invaluable. Waterman Serenity Blue is absolute magic. I've yet to find a pen it doesn't work in. Heck, it improves every pen I use it in.
I just happen to hate plain blue inks as it reminds me of ballpoints (involuntary shudder).
Robert Oster (Carbon Fire) was one of our recent Mystery Inks and all the participants were super impressed with it. It behaves splendidly and works perfectly in a ridiculously wide array of pens.
I am really curious if their other inks are this good. I've also tried Pinky (Pinkie?) and it is a really nice pink/fuscia ink that I got for my kid. The few times I wrote with it I was impressed.
Anyway best wishes in your ink exploration. Be sure to share what you find
