Simoun wore large blue goggles to shield his eyes from the sun, concealing his face and revealing little of the revolutionary fire beneath his polished exterior.

About Troublemaker Inks

Troublemaker Inks is a small ink studio based in Cebu, Philippines, known for producing beautifully handcrafted fountain pen inks with exceptional shading and sheen. Founded in 2018 by two teenagers, the brand gained recognition as the first Philippine-made fountain pen ink on the market. Their debut collection featured colors inspired by Filipino and Cebuano culture, including shades like Hanging Rice (green), Luneta Twilight Pink, and Sinulog Black. Each ink is carefully hand-mixed in small batches, offering vibrant, expressive colors that bring character and creativity to your writing. Using the pre-colonial Philippine's Baybayin writing system, each ink bottle contains a nod to the history of the Philippines with the word ᜆᜒᜈ᜔ᜆ (tinta), meaning ink.
