Wonderful ink!!!!

Syo-Ro is amazing. The color isn't too bright or too dark, so well-balanced. Vibrant and enjoyable. (I'm sorely tempted to buy a bottle after trying this one.)

Everyday Ink

Pilot Iroshizuku ink is great and this Syo-ro color is my favorite. I use it everyday during my morning writing ritual. Pairs well with my Edison Pen Co. Collier in Pearlized Juniper. I'll never not own a bottle. I bought this sample along with several others for my father for Christmas. He's getting a TWSBI Eco with a bunch of inks. Hope he likes them.

Love Pilot ink

First, let me say how much I love Goulet Pens. Orders always arrive on time, packaged with care, and are accurate. You can't get much better than that! With that said, Pilot inks are quickly becoming my favorite and this color doesn't disappoint. It's a welcome addition to my 'blue' collection. I like to write with ex-fine nibs and this ink flows smoothly and steadily- never skipping. It dries fairly quickly on Rhodia paper and as a bonus there is even some shading which doesn't happen that often in ex-fine nibs.

surprising

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill my fountain pen from an ink sample vial? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

The technique depends on the fountain pen's filling mechanism.

Check out our blog post on How to Fill a Fountain Pen from an Ink Sample Vial, or watch the video here:

How much writing can I really do with 2ml? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We find that usually you can get 2 good fills for a typical converter with our ink samples, or one good fill with a large capacity piston-filling pen.

How much writing you can do depends on you more than anything else. It mostly depends on how big or small you write, and the nib size you’re using. We recommend experimenting with different nib sizes to find what works best for you.
