on saleRobert Oster Cherry Blossom - 50ml Bottled Ink

Very lovely color. I was a little concerned the shade might be too light, but it’s saturated enough so that it’s pretty easy to read. There is some subtle shading which is quite nice. I’d say it’s just a little on the dryer side, but really I don’t even think about this when writing with it.

Some people say the ink is dry. I have not had any issues using this ink in a prera with an italic cm nib. Writes great and is easy on the eyes. Didnt think I’d be a pink ink fan but this black inflected pink ink is pretty easy on the eyes.

I'm new to fountain pens and inks, so I don't have much to compare this to. It's a beautiful muted pink that dries quickly. I'd say is writes wet compared to some other inks in my Pilot Metropolitan F nib. I appreciate that it doesn't cause a hard start in my pen, but that does mean it doesn't last as long. It stands out well in my Mnemosyne notebook. It comes out slightly lilac on the paper when its wet. I'll definitely buy a bottle of this when it's back in stock!

A lovely pinkish ink which has a somewhat Iris tint on my Tomoe River notebook. The color variation might be due to the fact thatthe paper is not white, but eggshell. Ink flow experience in my Pilot Prera was smooth and consistent. There was no noticeable shading, and none was expected with my fine nib, but it wouldn't surprise me if shading occurs using a broad or stub nib. All in all, I have never been disappointed with Robert Oster fountain pen inks. Thank you all at Goulet Pens for your informative and very entertaining videos.

I really liked the color I viewed on-line and I was not disappointed with the color of the ink. However, this ink is so dry it is unusable. I tried it in several pens and they all gave me the same results, dry scratchy and very weak on paper. So I have to conclude that it is indeed the ink itself. If there is a pen out there that it works with I would love to have it, but I cannot keep buying pens just for this beautiful colored ink. That being said I am also reluctant to buy any other Robert Oster ink. Next time I will be a little more diligent and read the reviews.
