Wearingeul Don Quixote: What even is this color?

Okay, I don't know what to call this color. I picked it out because I couldn't really identify the color on the label, but you know I love a weird color. This one, though, I'm on the fence about. It's too light in one pen, and kinda too dark in another. I think I can find the right nib for this ink, but it's got to be *just* right. So: grab it if the funky color does it for you or if you really like the search for the perfect ink/nib combo.

** I think Dromgoole's gave me this for review. Or maybe I bought it from them. I honestly can't remember, so just assume that they gave it to me. I try not to let that sort of thing color my reviews. What you see is what I got. Thanks for the support, Patrons! **

I bought this ink, just for the name (love inks named after literature, ) and also because it is weird! I mostly use my fountain pens for journaling and pen pal letters, and I find it to be very legible (I mostly use medium and broad nibs) and certainly different from my other inks! I like it for that reason alone!

Interesting! I have strongly mixed feelings about this color! It's a nice ink but I don't know if I would want to spend twenty bucks on a bottle, though. In any case, thanks for the review!

If it were a little pinker it might remind me of the color of Hershey’s unsweetened cocoa powder. I like it a lot! Thanks for the demo!

I’m new to pens and inks, so I appreciate your videos. I’m learning a whole new vocabulary! 😊

Cool - I just posted this one yesterday. :) Looks much darker here than it did in my Japanese EF - no real surprise. As you say, really weird ink, brownish, pinkish from my side - even our chromas look different. Definitely an ink to try. Thanks for the review, Mike!

Thanks for the interesting review. I'm still waiting for your review of that Xezo pen!

Looks somewhat like a Birmingham ink, PA Fieldstone, which I am trying hard to like a lot, but is also thin, hard to describe, unless you've seen PA fieldstones, looks different depending on the nib, pink, brown, green?

I kinda dig it, but I usually enjoy that "red? brown? purple? what is going on?" range of color. If this was a lipstick or a shirt they'd probably call it fig. Assuming my monitor's not lying to me, this is also the color you get if you make dye out of avocado skins.

I'd call that color "puce".

I wonder if adding a few drops if Monotonic might bring out some extra shading? I’ve been tempted to get this ink for title, but I don’t think I’d use it much.

Would you put this ink on a Montblanc?
