Are the inks packaged well?

Superbly packaged. I keep all of the boxes the inks come in.

is this ink opaque like sumi ink..... and it be used for calligraphy?

Idk, it’s a lot brighter than I thought it would be, I was hoping for a dark dark green. I never really done calligraphy so idk if it would work. I bought Iroshizuku Shin Ryoku. Still a nice ink though.

Has anyone received a busted lid/leaky bottle in 2019? Wondering if the shipping packaging has improved any. Thanks!

Neither of the two bottles I purchased separately had issues.

I have ordered and received 3 different bottles of Iroshizuku ink in the last 12 months and all have arrived intact and without issue.
