How many shades of blue/green ink to you need? Probably more than you think. This is one of these sleeper hits, unobtrusive, well behaved and beautiful. Get it!

Writes well with a glass dip pen and med/fine nibs. The saturation is perfect. Dries true to color. Definitely worth the price.

Syo-ro is a beautiful "Teal" color that shows well on the page. Pilot Iroshizuku inks are high quality writing inks.

Bought this impulsively and was pleasantly surprised how much character this color has. It's a beautiful teal base with a rusty sheen to it. It flows so well, even in my extra fine nibs there's never any skipping or hard starts. And you can see the sheen in all nib sizes. I highly recommend it.

As usual Pilot Iroshizuku ink exceeds expectations. Drying time and color saturation is great. These inks perform even on substandard paper but are a true joy on great paper. Syo-ro is a pleasant blue green and I am not normally a writer that uses green. This color is so vibrant. I find myself writing just to see the color...

I adore this ink! I love teal/turquoise, but am a little particular about the shade. I was so happy to find this colour to be spot on for me. It's such a neat way to express yourself in a world of typical black and navy blue inks, but subtle enough to not punch you in the face or seem out of place on a formal document.I purchased an ink syringe to load it into my fountain pen cartridges, which made the process ridiculously fast and clean. I used the refillable pump cartridges a few times and it was just too messy for me, especially with this ink which will stain anything it touches (not counting the sink or countertop if you wipe it up quickly enough). So as with all good pigments, be careful not to get it on something where you don't want it.Beyond the gorgeous colour, the quality is also outstanding. It is so smooth, doesn't feather, bleed, smear, rub on your hand or gunk things up, and the flow blows me away at how ready it always is to write. You know how some inks take forever while drawing annoying little circles to start the flow, or how you have to prompt it again after setting the pen down for a minute? This one is just there, ready and waiting. I once accidentally left it in a pen for a couple months without use (I know, please forgive my sin), picked it up, and it started writing almost immediately! Seriously impressed.I've gone multiple years at uni writing full essays and filling whole notebooks using this ink and have yet to find fault with it! I haven't even gone through half of the bottle! I was a little leery of getting it at first, for reasons I honestly can't even remember now, because I just couldn't be happier with this ink!

Un magnifique vert/bleu avec d'intenses reflets en séchant.Utilisé sur un lamy safari, un preppy platinum et un twsbi eco (plumes fines ou extra fines ) : un vrai plaisir à écrire , à relire, couleur douce, profonde.La bouteille est un bel objet également, avec un système astucieux pour récupérer jusqu' à la dernière goutte.Aux amateurs de belles encres, allez-y, la qualité est exceptionnelle !

Extremely high quality ink. It works well on both high and low quality paper however you won't see very much shading on the low quality paper. The color is just a bit bluer than the color on the bottle label leads you to believe but it still has a hint of a green tone to it. It really is a unique color that looks spectacular. This is currently my personal favorite of all of the inks I own for fountain pens and I would highly recommend it.

Die Tinte kommt in einer hochwertigen Silbernen Verpackung. Die Farbe ist wunderschön und fließt gut aus dem Füller. Gekauft als Akzentfarbe aber ich glaube sie wird meine neue tägliche Tinte.

Pilot Syo-ro ink is a beautiful, well-behaved ink. It's the color of blue spruce boughs after rain: a slightly gray blue/green. It's a lovely, rich, subtle color that is a joy to write with. So far I've used it with a Japanese fine nib, a fine Italic nib, and a wet European medium nib. It works well with all three.Ever since it arrived six weeks ago, I've had at least one pen inked with it. It's extremely readable. It has become my go-to blue ink.If you love very bright vibrant colors, you may want to try a sample before buying a whole bottle. You might prefer a less muted color. (Goulet Pens sells samples, and maybe other online vendors do, too..) (In fact, sampling first is never a bad idea, since color preferences are such a personal matter.) But I wholeheartedly endorse this as a beautiful, usable ink that is a little bit out of the ordinary.Even the bottle is beautiful and practical.

Die Tinte ist einfach wunderschön, ich liebe die Farbe und sie trocknet erstaunlich schnell. Ich benutze sie in einem Pelikan souverain.
