Ink Review: Henry David Thoreau - Organics Studios



One of the inks everyone has opinions about: Henry David Thoreau by Organics Studios. 
 


 It flows fine, no problems with it. It looks very different when it's starting to run out, fyi. 

[Additional photo of page to be inserted - somehow didn't take a pic of it.]

I have a bias here: I strongly dislike Thoreau. Like, the person. So smug, so navel-gazing, so absolutely supported entirely by his unnoticed mother. So it's hard for this ink not to kind of have a petulant-entitled-man-child aura about it for me. 

I admit though - it's a cool ink. I don't know how anyone could disagree with that. It is a serious mix of colors, they all shine separately, and it shades insanely. It's in a class of its own. 

I just don't... quite... like the color? I come very close to liking it sometimes, but I haven't bought an actual bottle of it, and I doubt I ever will. 

Now, of course, I want to. 

6/10.
