Color is the perfect blend of a dark blue hue and black. You almost have to stare at it to realize that it is in fact a blue ink. Works wonderfully in my Monteverdae Innova Formula M fountain pen! I work at a bank and this fast drying ink works beautifully for me. Especially since I am left handed. I had the black as well but it got some kind of weird fungus in it after only a short period of time. Could have been user error but who knows. Not a deal breaker for me though. The ink is reasonably priced. Just try it.
I'm writing daily with my ink pen (Montblanc 149) for my job. After trying several types of ink, I came across the Private Reserve Midnight Blues (most beautiful color), first the regular one. Ink flow fits to my normal writing speed. As I'm lefthanded it smeared if I did not pay attention. The Fast Dry solved the problem! Since about 5 years I'm using the Private Reserve Midnight Blue(s) Fast Dry ink and I'm not going to change. As it is hard to get in Germany, I thank THE GOULET PEN COMPANY very much to ship overseas!!!
