Diamine Good Tidings is a saturated black ink from the Black Edition with subtle green sheen that's barely visible on most papers like Rhodia but more apparent on Tomoe River or Midori MD. It features a wet flow, average to slow drying times around 50 seconds, and low water resistance, making it smeary even after hours. Ideal for those seeking a reliable, dark black with a hint of festive sheen for legible writing, though it disappoints some as an 'extreme sheen' ink.
