Ink Review #634: Diamine Blue Edition Season's Greetings

Today we will be starting off our holiday reviews with Diamine Season’s Greetings.

Swabs:

This ink had low shading and medium sheen. This is a dark green teal which reminded me of Sailor California.

This ink had a wet flow and was very saturated. Unfortunately, I experienced hard starts/skipping whenever I paused for more than a few seconds. I didn’t experience hard starts when uncapping my pen.

Overall: Diamine Season’s Greetings is a beautiful dark teal with excellent sheen. However, I disliked the hard starts.
