PEN REVIEW: Monteverde Limonada

Posted on by

When Margaret from Goulet Pens asked if I’d like to review the Monteverde Limonada and a Visconti ink, I replied with this:

I have zero experience with either the pen or ink and would love to review them. For the pen – I’m totally open on color – send me your favorite!   For the ink – any of the colors is fine with me – except the brown – because, you know, it’s brown 😉

Let’s look at the pen in detail today and save the ink for another day.

The Monteverde Limonada in Roma Gold is a rich satin-finished champagne color and it’s easy to see why it’s Margaret’s favorite color. It is only available with a medium nib. The pen arrives clipped to a detailed instructional sheet inside the thick paper/board box shown above. It also comes with an converter and two standard international short cartridges – one blue, one black.

I love the detailed instructions.

 

The Limonada is definitely on the slender side. The grip/section is shaped similarly to the Lamy Safari / Al-Star. These two things make me think this pen isn’t for everyone – especially those with larger hands. I didn’t find it uncomfortable, but it was perhaps a bit unbalanced when the cap was posted.

The clip is flexible and positioned quite high on the cap. When clipped in a shirt pocket, it rides low rather than poking up out of the pocket. The clip is also flared at the end – making it easy to slide onto a stack of papers.

Clairefontaine ends with an “e” – everyon knows that.

But how does it write?

Pretty good! It’s not the smoothest pen I own, but it’s not even a little scratchy. I definitely think the writing looks more like a western fine nib than a medium. There were no writing issues at all and the pen started right up – just the way it’s supposed to work. (This writing is done with Visconti Purple.)

Final thoughts . . .

At $28, the Limonada is a good value. I love that the converter and two cartridges are included. It writes well and I like that it comes in several different colors.

Having said that, this pen won’t replace my inexpensive pen of choice –  Lamy Safari. The Safari is $29.60 at Goulet Pens and does not include the converter. My other low-cost pick is the Pilot Metropolitan at just $15 (converter included).

Thanks to Goulet Pens for the opportunity to try the Limonada. They sent it free of charge and I promised to give my honest opinions.

Keep an eye out on Instagram for more pictures of this pen and ink in use.

  16. The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple
    ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.

    I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

  20. Just recently used this crypto service to exchange my BTC to USDT TRC-20 tokens.

    Frankly speaking, everything went perfectly fine.

    I was amazed that the conversion took just a few minutes.

    Previously, I also used BNB to ETH pairs on the same platform.
    Each swap completed very efficiently. My favorite thing about it
    is the clear fee structure. Zero hidden costs
    — everything was clear and fair.
    The dashboard was clean, and even a beginner could handle the whole exchange easily.
    Additionally, security measures seems very solid. Verification was minimal,
    but still the process remained safe.
    What I didn’t like is a bit of lag when I contacted chat support.
    It’s not a huge problem, still quicker communication would make the
    service even more professional.
    Overall though, the final outcome was great.

    my balance updated almost instantly. Because of this, I
    invite everyone to visit this page and go through the full review about crypto swaps
    using TRC-20.
    For those planning in doing fast crypto swaps, this exchange will save you a lot
    of time. It supports ETH, USDC, DOGE, TRX, and more.

    All in all, the general result left me happy. Fast speed,
    low fees, simple design, and reliable swaps. It’s now my go-to exchange
    every time I convert BTC or ETH. Check it now! Learn more on their official blog — you’ll find
    it helpful.

  21. When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I
    get several emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service?
    Thanks!

  26. Ии девушка Искусственный интеллект проникает во все сферы нашей жизни, и область романтических отношений не стала исключением. Сегодня мы можем говорить о появлении AI girlfriend – виртуальных подруг, созданных на основе нейронных сетей и машинного обучения. Эти цифровые компаньоны способны взаимодействовать с пользователем, поддерживать беседы, проявлять эмпатию и даже формировать уникальные личности, адаптирующиеся к индивидуальным предпочтениям. Однако, вместе с возможностями открываются и этические вопросы, связанные с эмоциональной зависимостью, размыванием границ между реальностью и иллюзией, а также влиянием на формирование межличностных отношений в реальном мире. Обсуждение AI girlfriend требует взвешенного подхода, учитывающего как потенциальные выгоды, так и риски, связанные с развитием этой технологии.
