- Beautiful bottles with really pretty labels. Does that matter? Yes, because they look nice and I'm vain.
- Gorgeous blue ink! WOW.
- Nice, wet flow.
- Good sheen.
- If you need something to replace your Parker Penman Sapphire, this will do it.
- You won't find it everywhere, but it's worth looking for.
- Tastes absolutely terrible.
- It smudged on very smooth paper, but where it was very saturated.
Okay... this is a gorgeous blue. My ultimate blue is still Sailor Jentle Sky High, but, big surprise, another Sailor blue has captured my heart. LE SIGH. I need a bottle.

It isn't vain to appreciate the design of a bottle or it's label! Apart from the fact that vain relates to personal appearance, there's nothing wrong with admiring design.
This is called "first love/romance"
DO NOT TASTE ICK :P haha. great review
That's a gorgeous color!
One of the worst I've ever tasted!
I have not yet - I'll add that to my list :)
Ah! Thank you for pointing that out. From now on, I will refer to it as admiring design :)
There is only 1 ink I seem to taste constantly and that is only cause it always has a hard time starting since it can dry hard is Noodler's Liberty Elysium. Sometimes even an hr later it will be dry an not moving so I know what it tastes like. :)
I have a bottle of BB Sapphire coming soon. Very much looking forward to it.
There are lots of gorgeous Sailor blues that are shop-exclusives in Japan. Off the top of my head Ishida Bungu Hakodate Twiligh and Kingdom Note Garrulous Lidthi come to mind, as well as some notables in the Kobe ink line, like #7 and #14.
Please do!! It shades from a raspberry red to an almost brownish red and even has a little gold sheen in broader nibs. :)
Just saw this review. Wow, what a gorgeous blue! Thanks for the review. Will have to keep this one in mind....
