on salePilot Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo - Ink Sample

Love the ink, it looks great. I've been a long time fan of asa-gao, but I enjoy how this is a bit more subdued. The only issue I ran into (and it isn't really Goulet Pens' fault), but the ink sample does not fill well at all on the new pen I got with the order - the Pilot Vanishing Point. So I'd recommend that if you're wanting to try a sample, using something with a shorter filling mechanism. Just something to keep in mind, but did not effect my review of this beautiful ink.

So far this is the top contender for blue ink for me. You cant go wrong with Pilot Iroshizuku inks.

This is such a great blue. I am NOT a fan of blues or blacks. They're far too boring and ordinary for me. This one, however, is perfect. It's blue, yes, but is more of a denim blue. I feel like that sets it apart from the boring ones. And, of course, it's Iroshizuku. I love Pilot inks. This one flows perfectly and dries quickly, and hasn't caused any issues at all in my Platinum pens. I'll be ordering a full bottle as soon as the sample is gone.

Another really excellent ink from Pilot. The color is very interesting, but at the same time understated and very live-able with. There is a very nice degree of shading. The flow is good, but the ink is still precise as it goes onto the paper.

I have been buying a lot of stuff from Goulet and now that I have about 65 samples an ink needs to be special to really stand out. The pilot inks are some of my favorite inks but this one is just ok.
