What is Japan's traditional color "Indigo tea"?
Indigo tea is a gray color with a strong bluish tinge, which is a mixture of indigo and indigo tea. The color name ``brown'' is not brown, but a ``dark, dull hue'' and is a black color. The origin of the name of the color is recorded in ``Tekan Mobushiyo'', which states that long ago, during the Nezu Gongen festival, those who had fought had the same color dyed and wore it all together as a sign of reconciliation. It seems that the color of ``agreement'' that resolves disputes has come to be called ``aisumi-cha.''
