Mistral is a casual script typeface designed by Roger Excoffon for the Fonderie Olive type foundry, and released in 1953.

The stroke has an informal graphic quality similar to brush and ink.

The lowercase letters are carefully designed to connect on a line to an extent unusual in script fonts.

In lowercase Mistral is a true connecting script, similar to cursive writing.

Choc, another typeface of Excoffon's, grew out of his repeated and ultimately abandoned efforts to make a bold of Mistral.
