## Description

Pilot Iroshizuku - 50ml Bottle

Review: Queen of inks - I'd heard people refer to Pilot IRO inks as the "WD40" of the ink world, and I can see why. These flow beautifully even in problematic pens or dry pens and deliver pretty consistent performance in others. The only time I've shied away from this ink line is if working with a gusher of a pen or a broad nib as it can get away from you a bit. I'm actually amazed at how rich the color is considering its watery consistency and saturation levels which make cleanup after use super easy. No worries about staining - at least in my experience. The Yama Budo is one of my favorites in this line. A deep and rich burgundy with a touch of purple. I wouldn't necessarily refer to it as a magenta as it lacks that bright pinkish color. More like what I imagined a red wine stain looking like or what happens when you crush concord grapes skins between your fingers. The one relative con is that it's not at all water resistant. The easy in getting it off your pens and fingers also translates to the page, but I don't mind. In a fine nib, this rarely bleeds through even composition paper, making it my go-to for grading sessions.
Review: Love this line of Pilot inks! - Great colour, it really stands out!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than expected
*by A***R on January 12, 2026*

I absolutely fell in love with this color!!!! Bring that I have played around with calligraphy dip pens and still do. I’ve never tried a fountain pen to write with on a daily basis. This ink is sooooooo smooth and the color out of this world. It is nice to write with something other than black,blue, or red. For around 30 bucks a bottle you can’t beat that and I’m sure it is worth more glad to have bought it at such an affordable price.
