Ponzu specimen from Mint Type

A stencil-style display sans-serif from Andriy Konstantynov that pairs infinite-contrast tapering stems with serif-like terminals across nine weights and matching italics.

About

Ponzu's defining characteristic is the sharp termination of strokes that vanish at maximum contrast, giving the typeface its stencil quality without relying on conventional stencil breaks. Serif-like terminals add an unexpected elegance to the construction, making it a hybrid well-suited to editorial layouts, branding and poster work. The family spans nine weights with complimentary italics and includes Cyrillic support alongside OpenType features.

Classification
