Ink Review #196: Noodler's Habanero

We are spicing up today’s post with Noodler’s Habanero. This is a highly saturated, intense orange.

This ink had high shading, and no sheen. This is a fiery orange that pops out at you on the page. It reminds me of papaya.

This ink had a long dry time at 40-50 seconds, with low water resistance.

I found that this ink behaved well but smeared easily. The color was surprisingly easy to read.

Overall: I recommend purchasing a sample of this ink. The orange is quite unique and I plan to purchase a full bottle.
