As the titler says - what is your favorite ink, and why? Does it change with the seasons or the use case?

I can start out. My current favorite is Diamine Oxblood. I'm not really sure why this is, but I like the color and it behaves nicely in my Safari. I also enjoy my Iroshizuko Tsuki-Yo, and I really like this color, but I have not tested this much. But I think it will be good in my AL-Star 2023LE Petrol! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Iroshizuku Yu-Yake, Montblanc Irish Green, Diamond Oxblood and Diamine Aurora Borealis are my most used inks. Usually stick to the same ink per pen since I'm too lazy to do deep cleaning sometimes.

Oxblood and Aurora Borealis are among my most commonly used inks. I also really like Diamine Oxford Blue amongst the Diamines

Wish my normal ink store had Aurora Borealis and Oxford Blue - those really seem like inks I would enjoy! ๐Ÿ˜… Guess I have to get it from elsewhere.
