Paper & pairing
Blues and navies are the most broadly "safe" fountain pen colors: legible, professional, and unlikely to raise eyebrows in an office. This ink will behave predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Cheap, highly absorbent paper (standard copier paper) will dull any ink's saturation and can cause feathering or bleed-through with wetter nibs.
About Beaufort
Beaufort Ink is a family-owned British company established in 2014 in Devon, England, supplying premium pen-making components and inks. It designs its own original pen kits, serves as a leading worldwide agent for Bock nibs, and produces its own line of fountain pen inks in bottles and cartridges. The company sells to pen makers and writers around the world.
Storing and using the bottle
Bottled fountain pen ink has an effectively long shelf life when kept capped and out of direct sunlight: most inks remain usable for years. The main risk isn't the ink spoiling, it's a pen sitting inked and unused for weeks: that's what causes clogs, not the ink's age.
