Lovely floral aroma

I was surprised by how nice the room smells when I use this. The black depth is rich enough for couplets, and the price is unbeatable.

Smooth and consistent

No clumping issues at all. The pine soot element gives it a traditional feel while the floral scent adds a modern touch. Highly satisfied.

Good quality for beginners

As someone just starting with calligraphy, this ink is forgiving. The light glue formula makes it easy to wash brushes. Would recommend.

Excellent oil soot ink

The oil soot formula provides a glossy finish that looks professional once dry. No sediment at the bottom of the bottle after a month of use.

Great bundle deal

Buying two bottles was a smart move since I go through ink quickly during practice sessions. The consistency is perfect for standard brushes.

Perfect for daily practice

The scent is very pleasant and not overpowering. The ink flows smoothly on rice paper without bleeding too much. Great value for two bottles.
