Pilot Iroshizuku Bottled Fountain Pen Ink, Syo-Ro, Dew on Pine Tree, Dark Turquoise (69206)

This ink has the right flow, right drying time. The colour's spot on. The bottle feels premium and the packaging was good. Using this ink makes you wonder why would you go back to cheap inks. Of course you need the right paper and pen, so it doesn't bleed, but if you are buying this I know, you would searched for all this

Wonderful colour and flow. Enhances writing experience. Great return for spending if you are willing to spend

Pilot ink is always fine and I am using it regularly for a long time as well. I got the bottle cap broken and ink loakes all over the packing. Almost 25% ink is lost.

Visually and design-wise the ink bottle is a treat. That's the first impression one has, and one wants to write with it! The ink itself is beautiful. It writes a little darker than you'd expect looking at the bottle - not the bright turquoise ink I remember from my adolescence, instead the shade is closer to the one that's on the carton. Writing with a Sailor Medium, I love the flow, although it's a little less dense than the sailor inks I'm used to, and it won't stand up to water at all. This is an ink to love and remember. Can't wait to try a few of Pilot's other shades.

My favourite ink of all time

Great consistency. The Color of this green is much much better and the flow from my sheffar pen is nicer with this ink.

Beautiful ink. Using with a medium nib Kakuno (same nib as the metropolitans) is a heavenly journaling experience. The dried ink retains it's pink-ness, absolutely legible, but not quite a blue-black, of course. Would personally use with a wetter / broader nib ( I have Syo-Ro in my fine nib pen I use for maths, etc)
