New inks from Sailor!

Hello folks,

There's been some buzz about inks coming and going from Sailor. It seems that they're canceling most of the Jentle line of inks (aside from Black, Blue, and Blue Black).

My good friends, Brian and Lisa Anderson, sent me samples of all 8 new colors. I hadn't seen them before on the interwebs, so here are a bunch of swatches of these samples. I haven't got them in pens yet, but I'm really looking forward to it.

I usually take my pictures in natural sunlight, but it's really overcast today, so these are taken inside.

Doyou is actually a really dark brown, though it looks mostly black in this picture. Miruai is a dark green.

Oku-Yama looks a lot like Jentle Grenade, but it's a little brighter. It still has the same sheen, though.

Souten is really bright. I really like the look of that.

Find these inks at Anderson Pens.

Find the Maruman Mnemosyne Word Book that I used for these samples at JetPens.

(These samples were sent free-of-charge for my review purposes, and my opinions are my own.)
