Jam Ink - Apricot

Jam Ink - Apricot - ink drop

Ding! Ding! We have a winner! Of the three inks from Jam Ink that I purchased, today’s ink is definitely my favorite.

Apricot is a beautiful, buttery golden yellow-brown. There are heavy orange undertones, which give it a slight resemblance to the flesh of an apricot, but there’s too much caramel to really bring fruit to mind. None of that really matters, though. This is a lovely, warm color that has a calming, positive feel as you watch it fill the page.

The writing experience with Apricot is more consistent compared to the previous two Jam inks that I’ve reviewed. They were nice, but this is a step above. I didn’t find any hints of feather here. There’s some shading and a nice, dark halo edging, and it feels great with a nice, smooth flow.

Jam Ink is made by Besen Masterpiece, and they are the in-house brand for Besen’s retail store Bestpen. So far, I’ve only seen them available in Korea through Bestpen, and through a reseller in the Philippines on Shopee.ph. If we’re lucky, that will eventually change, and they will be more widely available internationally. If you can find the brand, Apricot is a great place to start filling your cart!
