About the “Daigo-ji Cherry Blossoms”
Known since the Heian period as a prime cherry blossom viewing spot, Daigo-ji is home to around 700 cherry trees, including weeping cherry, Somei Yoshino, wild cherry, and double-flowered varieties.
It is also famously associated with Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who held an extravagant cherry blossom viewing party here in his later years—an event known as “Daigo no Hanami.”
What is Botanical Dye?
Botanical dye is an evolved form of traditional Japanese plant dyeing techniques. As the name suggests—“botanical” (plants) and “dye”—this method uses color extracted from various natural sources such as plants, flowers, and nuts to dye materials like cotton and wool.
Unlike conventional plant dyeing, which typically uses only about 20% natural dye and relies heavily on chemicals for color fixation, botanical dye employs a special adhesive to bind natural ingredients directly to the fibers. This allows the dye to maintain over 60% natural content, making it a more environmentally and human-friendly dyeing method.
Additionally, since a single plant can contain over 100 pigment components, the resulting colors have a richness and depth that cannot be achieved with synthetic dyes—one of the key appeals of botanical dye products.

*Please note:
Shipping was a nightmare and it's not true to size at all. The chest is too tight and the waist too loose.. but I checked carefully against garment sizes comparing to the RL shirts I own so I am very surprised. I won't buy this brand again.
Normally, I’d spend some time with the product before reviewing its attributes, but I felt it safe to comment on some of the finer points. First, the shirt right out of packaging, went onto the ironing board. This shirt is a dream to iron, and takes very little effort to remove creases. Understanding that this is a washable wool; in other words, the wool has been ‘superwashed’; there are positives and negatives to consider in this processing, but in this case, it has allowed for a material to produce a sheen, unlike that of untreated wool. The shirt, drapes, beautifully, and the Tokyo fit is a nearly a tailored finish for my frame. I think these shirts will be all-around ideal for all seasons except for the summer, and for travel; with changing temperature conditions, will be optimal.
