Heavy Mojito

#18720f
Notes

Heavy Mojito (#18720F) is a deep green with a jewel character. It carries the deep, saturated richness of a gemstone. Authoritative and slightly formal, it works well for type and heavy UI elements. Its HSL profile (115°, 77%, 25%) places it in the highly saturated band at a dark lightness. Best used in small doses, like logos, CTAs, focus rings, or highlight text, where its saturation becomes a feature rather than noise. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary violet. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Heavy
adjective

Old English hefig, weighty — cognate with heave. Used as a color modifier since at least the seventeenth century to indicate weight in saturation as much as value: heavy with pigment, heavy-bodied. In the engine's adjective grid, heavy sits alongside deep and plush in the dark-and-saturated quadrant. Closer to a fabric description than a pure value word.

Mojito
noun

The Cuban cocktail of rum, lime, mint, sugar, and soda — popularized by Hemingway in Old Man and the Sea settings. Mojito color refers to a fresh-shaken mojito with crushed mint: a soft, slightly cool yellow-green with the optical clarity of muddled-herb-and-spirits.
