#30inks30days ~ Day 25 ~ #Nagasawa Kobe Old Settlement Coffee Brown ~ April 2026

Day 25 ~ Kobe Old Settlement Coffee Brown / Kyu-Kyoryu Street Coffee Brown This ink surprised me because it is a super-sheening ink. The base color is a lovely, deep, milk chocolatey brown, but with a broad nib or heavy application, a green sheen takes over and pretty much obscures the brown base. That shiny green reminds me of how roasted coffee beans look, brown with green shine. As always, I appreciate your time and thank you for spending a brief bit of it with me.
