This Ryukyu indigo is a special indigo that grows only in a limited hot area, unlike the Tadeai and Indian indigo that are often used for general indigo dyeing. Due to its low fertility and the inability to produce seeds, it can only be increased by cuttings. Even in Okinawa, production has been declining in recent years, and its rarity is increasing. Since ancient times, indigo dyeing has been performed in Amami using indigo that grows naturally in the mountains. They are “weak alkaline simple hot springs” that are generally suitable for anyone. Every cottage is different, so guests can choose one that best suits them.
We visit Ryukyu indigo producers, mud indigo producers, and dyers in Okinawa to divide the seedlings, and while learning the knowledge of agriculture, we continue to raise seedlings through trial and error with farmers. Currently, I am trying to grow Ryukyu indigo with a farmer, and I am trying various ways to make indigo dye. Currently, we have set up a study group with volunteers from local villages, and have turned the closed elementary school into a workshop or atelier, and are working with writers and volunteers from the island. The unique and beautiful color that is highly transparent and soothes the mind is called Amami Blue.

If a view of the trees is more your style, reserve a “Forest View” room, which includes the Shinshu, Ruri, Moegi, and Matsuba rooms.
