Paper & pairing
Blues and navies are the most broadly "safe" fountain pen colors: legible, professional, and unlikely to raise eyebrows in an office. This ink will behave predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Cheap, highly absorbent paper (standard copier paper) will dull any ink's saturation and can cause feathering or bleed-through with wetter nibs.
About Yurindo
Yurindo (有隣堂) is a Japanese bookstore chain founded in 1909 in the Isezaki-cho district of Yokohama, where it remains headquartered. It operates around 40 stores in the Kanto and Kansai regions selling books, stationery and office supplies, and has released its own branded stationery items including exclusive inks.
Storing and using the bottle
Bottled fountain pen ink has an effectively long shelf life when kept capped and out of direct sunlight: most inks remain usable for years. The main risk isn't the ink spoiling, it's a pen sitting inked and unused for weeks: that's what causes clogs, not the ink's age.
