Default Best kraft coloured ink?

I'm looking for a nice kraft coloured ink to use on kraft paper. Any suggestions (other than PTI tan?) I find none of my Ranger Distress Inks seem to be quite the tone I'm looking for.

Thanks so much!!

I love my Stampin' Up! Kraft Ink. I believe they now call it Crumb Cake, but it's the same color as their old kraft paper.

SU has Crumbcake that might work for you. I also use an old SU ink called Creamy Caramel.

I've been happy with A Muse Studio's Wheat ink. It coordinates well with the Bazzill and Papertrey kraft cardstocks in my stash. Because it's more of a chalk/pigment ink it doesn't show up well on cardstock of the same color though.

Hero Arts Latte chalk ink. Love it.
Hero Arts Cup O'Joe shadow ink (midtone) is also a great color.

Another vote for Stampin' Up's! Crumb Cake. It's a great color for Kraft!

Adirondack Latte is pretty good. I know we tend to think of "kraft" as a single colour but in reality there are lots of slight different tones that we'd identify as kraft so I guess it's going to depend on exactly what cardstock you're using.

Thanks everyone! I'll check out a few of those but I agree with Joanne that there are so many tones of kraft making my life difficult LOL!

Another vote for Crumb Cake. It doesn't have those pink undertones that so many light browns have. I have found it blends well with the variety of kraft papers in my stash.

I found SU Kraft aka Crumb Cake was a little to light for my taste. I use Frayed Burlap from Tim Holtz distress inks. It is a little darker and suits me a lot better. I guess it is all a matter of taste.

I like SU Crumb Cake and Adirondack's Latte - both a different shade of kraft.

SU's Crumb Cake! Before the color renovation it was kraft and only in cardstock, now they have inks, markers, ribbon and DSP.
