Today I will be reviewing my first Pelikan Edelstein ink! This is a German manufacturer which makes stunning fountain pens as well a wide range of inks. Mandarin is a bright, cheerful orange which reminds me of its fruity namesake!
Swabs:
Mandarin has high shading and is brighter than Robert Oster's Orange Rumble.
This ink has no sheen, high shading, and a quick dry time. The color shades from a to a highlighter yellow-orange to a mandarin color. This ink is brighter than Robert Oster's Orange Rumble which is a pumpkin orange.

Writing Sample:
This ink flowed well and had shading in my finer nibs. It dries quickly, and gave me no issues with longer writing samples. The color is a tad bright for regular notetaking.
Overall: This is one of my favorite orange inks. I love the shading and how happy the orange color is!
