Customer Reviews
I really like this ink. I think it works much better and shows more color with a wetter nib though. The color is very, very pretty & it dries fast on Tomoe River 68gsm & MD paper. Will be getting a big bottle!
Seems quite red in my experience
Really nice, smooth ink. My new favorite orange. Even works good on cheap paper.
This ink has nearly a perfect flow, it's easy to clean and maintain, and shades very nicely! I'd put this color in the description of classy or fancy. There are no negatives about this ink in my opinion! :)
Disappointed in how dark the Yu-yake is writing in a Lamy Al Star, narrow nib [nib not marked, suspect it is F]. All Pilot Iroshizuku inks are responsive, giving a consistent line, and reasonably wet, but unless this ink is more orange sunset in another pen, it won't get a higher than average rating from me.
