Notes:
Sailor recently made some changes to their ink lineup, including the addition of this one, called Miruai. The full name (get ready for it…) is Sailor Jentle Four Seasons Miruai – Seaweed Indigo. Nomenclature aside, it’s a great dark teal that is accurately described in the name. There is a tiny bit of shading, showing off the nice blue color in shallower pools of ink. On point with the rest of the Sailor inks I’ve tried, the flow is great and it is nice and smooth. I really like Sailor’s ink bottle design, it has an internal cone that collects ink when you flip the bottle upside down. This ink catcher makes filling any pen easy, even when you are at the bottom of the bottle. The color is much different from the other green Sailor ink I have (Epinard) and it’s dark enough to be used everyday without getting stares. Thank you to JetPens for sending over the bottle for review!

Do you find the plastic ink reservoir to be in the way? I couldn’t fit any of my pens with even #6 size mind in all the way. Ended up taking it out haha.
You’re not alone: I found exactly the same thing, and dealt with it the same way.
a very nice color tone. not a typical color one would find in the market. i actually have a bottle, which i have yet to open and use. this review is enough to remind me what a nice ink i already have and need to try soon.
Do this ink stain on demonstrator pen such as TWSBI pens
I haven’t had any issues with staining.
