Ink Shot Review: Diamine Aqua Lagoon @CouronneDuComte

I was lucky enough to visit La Couronne du Comte recently. It was very difficult to pick only a reasonable amount of ink to leave with. I selected this one because I really like blues/turquoises and I wanted to see how this one stacked up to some of my other favorites!

OVERALL

I like this color. It's a little less green than Diamine Marine/Caran d'Ache Caribbean Sea, which I also love, but not as intense as Pilot Iroshizuku Kon-Peki, on the blue spectrum. I like it best with wet nibs and flex nibs, or in my Pilot Parallels!
