Ink Shot Review: ESS Registrar's Blue-Black Ink

Thank you to ESS for sending this bottle of ink over! I was really curious about it and wanted to test it (but not taste it).

ABOUT

Color: Blue-Black
Bottle: 110 ml
Price: £9.20 per bottle (includes postage)
Price/ml: £0.08/ml
Where to buy: ESS Stationery Supplies

PROS

• Very economical.
• Water resistant.
• Dries fast.
• Not the most hideous blue-black! WOO!
• Was pretty easy to clean out.
• I know I wrote no sheen, and under normal circumstances, there is none, but if you splatter the ink, it will make a great saturated little pool. Love it.
• Shades quite well for such a dark ink.

CONS

• Must practice proper pen hygiene.

OVERALL

This Registrar's Ink is a no brainer. There will come a time when you need a waterproof ink - labeling envelopes, for example. This ink is affordable, is a great value, and the blue-black color is pretty decent. That's coming from me, who generally doesn't care for blue-blacks. Check it out!

I received this item free of charge for the purposes of this review. I was not compensated monetarily for my review. Everything you've read here is my own opinion.
