Kyo No Oto translates to "sounds of Kyoto". "Kyo no Oto" is a series of writing inks that reproduce traditional Japanese colors used since the Heian period using modern techniques and interpretations. Each color has a unique name and story.

Adzukiiro is inspired by red bean. The color refers to a reddish-brown color with a purple tinge, similar to the fruit of an azuki bean. Red has been used as the color of prayer since ancient times, and sekihan made with azuki beans is indispensable for celebrations and events.

This dye ink was independently developed by the Kyoto Vegetable Dye Research Institute, which is made up of dyeing and weaving experts, and TAG STATIONERY.

Because dye ink is soluble in water, it can be used for a variety of expressions, such as “blur'' or thinly stretching the color with a water brush after writing with ink.

Kyo No Oto inks are on the drier side. If you prefer more lubricated inks check out Pilot Iroshizuku Inks.

  • Dye-based fountain pen ink

Please note: These inks are made in small runs and may have slight variation from bottle to bottle.
