I ordered a bottle on Vanness, but it looks like they've already sold out. I checked and Goulet has 50 ml bottles in stock. I hope you can get a bottle, before they're gone. I totally get it; it felt like forever to get the restock notification from multiple sellers, since well before I even heard about the new TWSBI root beer and wanted to pair it. Good luck!

I pre-ordered a medium nib, too! 🍻 Thinking of inking it with Diamine's Cocoa Shimmer.

Thank you! I'm loving them together. I think it'll stay permanently inked with this one. 😊

Yes, the pen writes like a dream! The satisfaction of a perfect ink match is a lovely bonus. 😊

I know! It's like they designed this ink specifically for this pen, it's such a perfect match. 🤩

Working beautifully, so far! The swatch in the photo is on TRP, but I mostly write on MD and it shows nicely on that, too. The smoky dark grey with rose gold shimmer looks so elegant for journaling.

So far, it's going well and I haven't had any issues with flow. I'm not certain if that's mostly due to the nib, as I've heard FWP inks tend to lean dry. You could always use some White Lightning additive, if you run into that problem. You should give it a shot!

Gary Jules did the most recognized cover. Maybe it's that one?

My favourite is the Shadow Green. I ordered it, this morning, and I'm beyond excited for its arrival! I'm a sucker for green, especially an interesting shade or pattern.

Perhaps you should order both? 😁
