Ink Review #640: Diamine Blue Edition Fire Embers

Today I will be taking a look at Diamine Fire Embers.

Swabs:

Fire Embers had no shading or sheen. This is a flat red that has a hint of orange undertones. It is quite similar to Ho Ho Ho; I ended up swabbing the inks twice to doublecheck that I had used the right vials.

Fire Embers had a long dry time of 60 seconds and medium water resistance.

This ink was very well saturated with an average flow.

Overall: Fire Embers was an average red in my opinion. I would have preferred a more orange-leaning red.
