## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vibrant
*by R***I on 4 February 2026*

This is an excellent and vibrant water-based ink.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful ink
*by A***H on 19 February 2026*

Beautiful ink. Fountain pen friendly.

### ⭐ 5 stars for the ink. 1 star for the packing.
*by D***H on 18 August 2025*

The ink is excellent as always. However, the cap was damaged. It had cracks and a minute amout of ink was leaking. I am fine with losing a few ml of inks. But due to the damaged cap, the bottle is not portable. Not to mention that Iroshizuku bottle is the star as much as the ink. The Crack in the cap has messed up my experience. To the others who are purchasing the ink, please go ahead. However, make sure the packing is robust so that the bottle/cap is not damaged.
