COLOR
Iroshizuku Fuyu-syogun is a lovely gray-blue. In use it depends on the paper how much of the blue tones show. It's hard to decide whether to categorize this closer to gray or closer to blue, but I love it!
CHARACTER
This ink is both light yet legible. It does have some slight shading, and the shading brings out more of the blue tones.
CONSISTENCY
Fuyu-syogun is a very pleasantly wet ink. Even though it is a slightly pale ink, it flows great and I don't have to struggle to get enough ink on the page to make it legible.

CONCLUSION
Iroshizuku Fuyu-syogun is one of my favorite inks in my collection. I have used it many times (as evidenced by my halfway-empty bottle) and it never fails to disappoint. I love the color and I love how well it behaves. It isn't flashy, it isn't the most interesting, but it looks amazing on the page if you appreciate subtle colors.
