Enough for one day I hope.

Good news . . . This is looking really promising. 1 part Hunter Green, 1 part Lie de Thé is very nice.

 

Bad news . . . I'm out of Lie de Thé so can't tweak things any further

 

Hunter Thé JM is born

oh, this IS nice

Cigar and rikyu-cha are both very paper-dependent.

I've tried them on two types of paper, and they almost look like totally different ink:

(posting with my cellphone, not sure if the link works:P)

 

those look like completely different inks. very interesting . maybe this is why Lgsoltek's rikyu-cha looks brown and mine looks olive green. i can only assume it really depends not only on paper, but also on the pen it is used with.

Wow. Consider me SUPER jealous! I only have 3 bottles of Cigar, and clearly I need more.

I think I have 12 bottles of cigar. But that's a color I frequently use, unlike fuyu-gare of which I have only 1 bottle.

12?...

ps: thanks for the mentioning of fuyu-gare. totally forgot about the existence of this ink. i have just quickly searched online on it and found it to be a color that i have already liked

What is the ink in the third picture? The box looks scrumptious.

what a great collection. i do notice the difference in color for the box packaging for Cigar ink, those in the first picture (green) and those in the second picture (brown).

That's joyful-2 Honda Purple Heart.

 

Thanks.

I'm happy I've got over wanting a bottle.

Thanks.

I've been writing with Joyful-2 Purple Heart this week. It's a great colour. I have the vase bottle & refill it from the jar bottle. Same ink I know but ....... LOL

Yeah, I like it too. I use a 6ml ink capacity pen, so I tend to change inks every 2-3 weeks.

Since the next fill is nearby, I was thinking of which ink to use. Old burgundy, Purple Heart or the cigar.

Maybe Irori since i haven't even opened that yet.

 

Makes sense, if it's a big nibbed pen, difficult to fill it with that jar bottle. My pen is an eyedropper filler, so I don't have to worry about that unless I take out my vac filler custom 823 or C/C pens.

Those short fat bottles with a plastic insert are terrible. I can't even fill a Sailor pen in it.

I find them cute... but then again, I never fill from the bottle.

Get an eyedropper filler pen.

_{Anderson Pens has just re-stocked on this color! Placed my order for two bottles!}

[mehandiratta]

bought this today...

I also bought Rikyu cha. I've done two comparison chroma tests of P&M Cigar and Rikyu cha, and can see virtually no difference between the two chromas.
