Iroshizuku Ink - 50ml Bottle by Pilot

Very attentive color. Helps the pen write smoothly due to its viscosity. All the inks from this Company have been great performers for me. I look forward to trying new varieties.

I write with fountain pens roughly about 95% of the time, I have some more costly pens and some trusty very affordable ones (Like the Pilot Metropolitan) Pilot Iroshizuku inks are premium, in the quality of the ink and beautiful packaging. Aso-Gao is my go-to everyday blue ink. It is a beautiful deeper blue with a hint of purple behind it. It is a subtle blue, not an in your face bright royal "LOOK AT ME" blue. Aso-Gao is a take me seriously, but know I'm not boring blue. All of the Pilot Iroshizuku inks are rather wet, so even with a Pilot/Namiki Extra fine nib, you will get a very smooth and pleasant writing experience. I highly recommend this ink. Unless you are using a fine nib, preferably Japanese this ink needs a paper that is smooth but not absorbent, or your writing will feather all over the place. Though with my fine nib Pilot Custom 74 or my fine nib Metropolitan it will write without feathering even on regular college ruled paper.

Iroshizuku Asa Gao is THE BEST of all the Blue inks in the Iroshizuku line. It flows smoothly, resists water better than all the other inks in this line (I am referring to the BLUE COLORS ONLY), and looks absolutely ELEGANT.This is the ink I will use for all my important correspondence. I fill my AMAZING Lamy 2000, using the Fine Gold nib because most Lamy pens, IMO, flow on the „wet“ side. So the Lamy Fine nibs typically look like the Pilot Medium nibs.

All the Iroshizuku inks behave well in all of my fountain pens. Asa gao happens to be my favorite color, a pretty morning glory blue and I use it often!

When I first saw this Iroshizuku Ink I was fascinated by its gentle, tender and precise adjustment with the vivid purple pigment they use to get this color when mixed with their blue ink. This "Vivid Purple Blue" is one of the finest and most attractive colors with which I have ever written. The color tends to draw the reader into the manuscript, capturing his eye as well as his fancy, with this unique and carefully blanced ink from Pilot Iroshizuku. You need not feel timid using Pilot Iroshizuku inks, they are tested to perfection. They have an enormous color variety and are wonderfully smooth to use.In addition, it is a quick drying ink and is usually dry to the touck in under 1 minute. While this color is similar to the Ajisai Hydragea, it has a deeper touch of the vivid purple and that precise toning gives incredible feeling to this color. It is almost as fun to write with this color as it is to read. Those authors and writers of any kind who are looking for an excellent color ink with fine qualities, you cannot go wrong with this one. Do give it a try.

This ink is excellent. It's a rich blue color with a hint of purple, very similar to that of Morning Glory flowers. I use it in a Jinhao X750 and a Parker Vector and it flows great in both. In terms of viscosity, the ink is more towards the thin side, so it may come out wet on some broad-nib fountain pens. The bottle is angled at the bottom so you can use up every last drop of ink. Also, it comes packaged in a nice box that looks like the kind used to package perfume or cologne. Shipping takes a while, but that's to be expected from a product imported from Japan. It's a little on the expensive side, but all in all, it's a very high-quality ink with a beautiful color and it is well worth the money. I would recommend it to any fountain pen owner looking for a top-quality ink that looks great on paper.

This is by far my favorite ink. It runs smoothly, dries quickly, has very little bleed and is just a beautiful color. Every fountain pen I own seems to do better with this ink than with any other I've tried. I love the Iroshizuku inks so much that I've even bought other colors with no projects in mind to use them on. I just don't want to come up missing one and having to wait for a delivery if I happen to need a vibrant red or a glowing gold. The ink is a bit more expensive than other brands but well worth it. If you don't want to try a big bottle, they do sell small sets of multiple colors. I strongly suggest you give this ink a try if you're like me and prefer to write with a fountain pen on a daily basis.

My first order never arrived & went back to Amazon which was strange, so I cannot review this specific color of ink, BUT the 2nd time around Kon-Peki Blue arrived on schedule and it is good stuff! Thanks.

Ich habe die Tinte bestellt (sie kam übrigens nach knapp 4 Wochen aus Japan), nachdem ich bei "tintenprobe.de" mir verschiedene Proben bestellt und verglichen habe. Im Vergleich mit anderen Tinten, auch z.B. von Montblanc oder Pelikan (Edelstein), ist die Tinte nicht nur vom Farbton und von der Farbintensität deutlich besser, auch der Schreib- und Fließeigenschaften der Tinte sind klar überlegen. Dies deckt sich auch mit den Rezensionen im "penexchange-forum". Der Farbton kann als ein dunkles Kobaltblau beschrieben werden, es ist aber kein dreckiges Blau, wie etwa das Königsblau von Montblanc, sondern es hat eine intensive, blaue Leuchtkraft. Also, absolute Kaufempfehlung, trotz längerer Wartezeit ( wer nicht so lange warten möchte, kann die Tinte auch bei "Schreibstoff" bei Ebay bestellen, da kostet sie allerdings mehr, nämlich 27,50 plus 2,50 Versandkosten - ich weiß gar nicht, ob ich das hier schreiben darf!).Ergänzung: Mittlerweile gibt es die Tinte auch bei "Fritz Schimpf", wohl dem renommiertesten Händler für Schreibgeräte und Zubehör in Deutschland. Dort kostet sie nur 25 € plus Versand

Inchiostro eccellente, che stupisce per la luce che riflette, proprio come quella omogenea e senza ombre dei raggi del mattino che entrano dalla finestra oltrepassando dei preziosi tendaggi.Il punto di blu, poi, è magnifico, diverso per resa cromatica e intensità da quello che viene illustrato sulla confezione. È un blu stabile, equilibrato, non è né troppo acceso né troppo serio ma soprattutto costante per tutto il filo grafico grazie anche all’ottima composizione e densità dell’inchiostro che solo in controluce lascia scorgere sulle carte nobili gli addensamenti di pigmento, che non sbiadiscono anche col passare del tempo di essiccazione.Il costo è alto rispetto ad altri in commercio ma la differenza ci sta ed è giusto che venga apprezzata per quello che dá.

Pilot Iroshizuku Tinten sind einfach anders.Man merkt Ihnen an, dass man ein ganzes Leben auf der Suche nach der perfekten Farbe sein kann und es wäre nicht verschwendet.In meinen Augen ist diese Asa-Gao ein wundervolles fast Königsblau, was kaum nach oxidiert. Immer Perfekt im flußEs setzt nciht den Füllfederhalter zu, es lasst sich gut aus dem Leiter wieder entfernen, wen man mal die Tinte wieder wechseln möchte.Ich habe sie in meinen Pelikan Souverän M1000, M200, Sailor K.O.P.. Pilot Coustum 823, Visconti H:S., Lamy 2000, TWSBI Eco, etc. sowohl in schmalen F und M Federn als auch in Stub und B, im Einsatz gehabt, es gab nie Probleme.

Sin duda una de las tintas para estilográfica mejores del mercado, es un poco cara, solo el uso dirá si vale la pena lo que cuesta.Lo único mejorable es el envío, ha venido en un sobre flexible y siendo un tintero no es lo más adecuado, la caja del tintero venía golpeada pero la botella estaba bien.

Recibí el tintero antes de la fecha señalada por el suministrador, correctamente embalado y en perfecto estado.El diseño del tintero es excepcionalmente atractivo; tanto que lo he puesto a la vista en mi escritorio, al menos hasta que me canse de verlo a diario. He probado la tinta en dos plumas de plumín F, faber castell y kaweco al sport. La tinta fluye fácilmente sobre el papel y genera un aspecto de letra "negrita", es decir, con trazo de mayor grosor al que estoy acostumbrado usando otras tintas (waterman serenity blue). Me gusta la tonalidad del color, la forma de deslizarse el plumín sobre el papel y la experiencia de escribir con ella me resulta satisfactoria.
