If you love using fountain pens, you’ll know that it’s hard to find quality ink in New Zealand. The solution is to use mail order over the Internet, from reputable sites such as Pendemonium. Right now, I’m using J Herbin’s subtly scented Rouge with Parfum Rose, which smells just like Turkish Delight. It’s at the softer end of the red scale, and makes correcting artwork a more fragrant task. J Herbin’s large range of inks is shown here: at around $14 a bottle excluding shipping, all come highly recommended.
