KAMOGAWA - Mint Chocolate Chip
forme. is one of the 713 brands in Inktend's built-in ink catalog.
Paper & pairing
Greens read as more expressive than blue or black, a common choice for people who want color without leaving the realm of "still looks professional." 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 forme.
forme. is a stationery planning and retail company based in Kyoto, Japan, with a shop in the Gosho-minami area near the Kamo River. In collaboration with the pen shop Pen-ya, it produces the KAMOGAWA series of original fountain pen inks in 30 ml bottles, with colors inspired by scenes of Kyoto's Kamogawa river, from cherry blossoms to fireworks.
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.
