Orange ink recommendations (sopuli.xyz)

As the title says. I’m looking for orange ink. Not too bright, not too muted, ideally tangerine 🍊 colour but a bit dirty - imagine a tangerine tree growing next to a busy road. Available in Europe.

I use Diamine Pumpkin:

@cedled @Korvmedbrod It doesn't evaporate and form ink crud on the nib? A few Diamine orange colors do that. But dipping the nib in water reconstitutes the ink and washes it off.

Most of my inks are Diamine and none of them does that. But I don’t have any oranges (except for Sailor’s Warning which is not really orange)

@Korvmedbrod I have many Diamine inks (except oranges), but this drying out ink crud phenomenon has been observed with just the oranges.
