Review Title: Darker than expected

I used it in a TWSBI GO with an EF nib, mainly on Tomoe River paper. The flow was good leaning to the wet side, no clogging. This ink is much darker than expected with this TWSBI flow, like the darkest part of the glass muddler swatching on the photo here on the website, and the shimmer is present all along the writing, abundant when you start writing to the point to be visible without angling the light, becoming more reasonable after a few lines, and then quite subtle after half an A5 page. After writing for a while, shading becomes more visible and the ink displays a dark olive undertone with hints of red thanks to the shimmer where the ink pools. All of this will depend on the light, pen & paper used, obviously ;)
The difference between the promotional picture and what I currently have is a bit disappointing to me, and I will try it in a pen with a lesser flow (hoping it doesn't clog ^^; ).
