COLOR
Pennonia Tihanyi Lila (or Tihany Purple) is one of those hard-to-categorize colors. Is it blue? Is it purple? Light...indigo? I tend to give up and call it a blurple. It is a grey-leaning blurple with hints of lavender and periwinkle.
CHARACTER
There is a moderate amount of shading noticeable with this ink. Since my brain reads the darker parts as purple and the lighter parts as blue, it makes for an interesting effect!
CONSISTENCY
I find that this ink is very easy to use. It is a smooth and consistent ink that tends toward the drier side, but not in a problematic way.

CONCLUSION
I always enjoy softer/dusky grey-ish inks, and I really like where this ink falls in the color spectrum. It's colorful enough to be interesting without being distracting, and works well on most papers. This was my first ink from Pennonia, and I'm very impressed!
