Ink Review #441: Sailor Jentle Peche

Today I will be reviewing Sailor Jentle Peche. This is the reissued version (re-released in 2017) and is a light pink.

This ink had medium shading and no sheen. This is a gentle medium pink.

I had a difficult time with this ink. It had a very smooth flow but I felt that it was slightly dry. As seen in my writing sample, my Nakaya would start off with a load of ink and then taper off. The color is unsaturated and slightly illegible.

Overall: I liked that this ink was smooth, but would have preferred a darker hue. This pink is best shown off in flexible or broad nibs.
