Daisuke Michigami, a roofer who has inherited the family business (president of Daiei Ceramics), continues to take on the "indefatigable challenge" of unraveling the "wisdom," "skills," and "teachings" of his predecessors that are embedded in each and every "Awaji tile," a traditional industry that has a history of 400 years, and passing them on to the future. What is the reason for continuing to take on new challenges? We will get to the bottom of the secret. Daisuke Michigami, a roofer, will talk about the charm of "tiles" created by the soil of Awaji over time, the thoughts he puts into making each and every tile, the scenery created by the layers of "tiles," and his commitment to the "beauty" of Japanese architecture, all at "Gallery Doza," a space completely wrapped in soil and tiles. Awaji tiles were hit hard by the unfounded rumor that "the damage caused by the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake was so great because the roofs were tiled." Even in an environment where the survival of Awaji tiles is still in doubt, Michigami has found great potential in "Ginfurubi" (tiles that are new yet somehow nostalgic, baked to a vintage, antique texture), and has been bringing out new charms of Awaji tiles that are different from anything that has come before. Now that his thoughts have taken shape, tiles are connecting people with each other, and Japan's good old traditional beauty is being reevaluated. Tile maker Michigami Daisuke's "insatiable challenge" will continue. After listening to his story, you can enjoy a space surrounded by earth and tiles that you would never believe is inside a tile factory, a view of the townscape that has flourished due to tile production since the Edo period, and Michigami's passion for "beauty" at "Gallery Doza," where you can feel Michigami's passion for "beauty." You can pretend to be a tile craftsman and try making your own "one-of-a-kind tile coaster," one of the new possibilities of tiles. You can choose from a variety of Japanese pattern designs that are prepared in advance, as well as original designs. Try making a rich work full of your sensibility.

The owner travels to coffee-producing regions around the world and carefully selects coffee beans that are thoroughly managed from cultivation to harvesting and transportation! In order to enjoy high-quality coffee with a rich original flavor called "specialty coffee," he roasts and brews the beans himself. The flavor changes drastically depending on the strength of the roast and the time, so adjust the roasting level to match your favorite flavor and aroma. Experience the profound world of coffee. A place in the Shitoori district of Minami Awaji City, where idyllic rural scenery spreads out. After getting off the car, walk for two minutes along a country road surrounded by trees to the Awaji Island Coffee Laboratory "BASE COFFEE," an annex to the premises of "Fuku Cafe," a quiet, hidden old-style cafe. If a cafe is a hideaway, this laboratory has the atmosphere of a "secret base." The owner, who is obsessed with the depth and unanswerable charm of coffee, is researching and studying every day to get to know coffee better and to pursue the creation of "coffee that makes you want to talk about it with others and makes you smile". The owner carefully selects coffee beans from producing areas around the world, including Central and South America, Africa, and Asia, and thoroughly manages the process from cultivation to harvesting and transportation. Using these top quality beans, you will experience roasting, the most important process that determines the taste and aroma of coffee. For the roasting process, we use a roasting pan called "mankashakasha", which is actually used in Ethiopia, one of the countries where we purchase beans. You can choose to roast lightly to bring out the fruity aroma and acidity of citrus fruits, or roast deeply to bring out the richness and bitterness of chocolate, or you can aim for something in between. In either case, it is difficult to conduct heat thoroughly to the inside of the raw beans in order to remove the moisture contained in them. In addition, even if you choose the same beans and roast in a hand pan, the heat transfer changes depending on how the beans roll and how the wind hits them, so even if the conditions are slightly different, the taste will not be the same and an original taste will be created. The staff will give you a thorough lecture, so please feel free to try it. When the roasted beans are cooled and ground in a coffee mill, a scent containing various elements, including the scent of nuts, caramel, and citrus, rises. This is the moment when the coffee beans emit the most aroma in their life. There are hundreds of elements of the aroma, which becomes a complex and rich coffee aroma that fascinates many people. Then comes the finishing process. Hot water is poured over the fragrant freshly ground beans to extract the maximum aroma and flavor, but there is also an appropriate way to pour the hot water. When you put the carefully extracted coffee in your mouth, your face will naturally break into a smile. *One cup of roasted and ground beans will be used for tasting, but you can take the remaining beans home with you.

Located about an hour from Himeji Castle, it is a precious place that preserves traditional Japanese rural scenery and shrines. In addition, due to the declining birthrate and aging population, the local elementary school is also at risk of closing. This is a format that allows everyone to participate in village revitalization through Japanese cultural experiences, and is different from general tours. Please join the "Village Revitalization Project" and let's create the future together. Thank you. This plan includes lunch and dinner. In this tour, you will experience Japanese culture.

With a history of 1400 years, tiles have protected Japanese houses, including shrines and temples. Among them, there are "Onishi" who have the skills of a master craftsman who draws a blueprint in his head while looking at the drawing with his own eyes without using blueprints or molds, and finishes it only with the sense of his fingertips and a handmade spatula. You can make a one-of-a-kind oni tile by learning from an "Onishi" how to make oni tile by hand using "name-do" soil that is more than 2 million years old. Awaji Island is one of the three major production areas of tiles in Japan, and is the number one producer of smoked tiles that shine with "silver". Tiles have a history of more than 1400 years, and tile making has been going on in Awaji Island for more than 400 years. Moreover, the soil used for Awaji tiles is still more than 2 million years old, and the very fine particles of "name-do" are used to create smoked tiles that shine with a beautiful silver color by baking (smoking) them in a kiln. In Japan, onigawara tiles have been used to decorate roofs as a talisman since ancient times. Even today, these onigawara tiles are carefully handcrafted by oni-shi (demon craftsmen) without the use of machines. Normally, you don't get to see onigawara tiles being made, but in this experience, you can watch the onigawara craftsmen's skills up close and make onigawara tiles together. Since this experience is limited to one group, you can make onigawara tiles without worrying about other people. If you have any questions or questions about how to make them, you can ask the onigawara maker at any time, and it is an experience where you can experience traditional techniques in a private atmosphere. [Procedure] 1. Draw a rough sketch of the image (you can also bring a draft with you) 2. Decide on the design of the onigawara tile 3. Together with the onigawara maker, use tile clay (nametsu) to create a rough shape 4. Let it cure (eat lunch (each person) during this time) 5. Finish the fine details using a spatula and your fingertips 6. Completed (you can also take a commemorative photo with the onigawara maker) *The work will then be carefully dried and fired and delivered in about two months. *For lunch, you can enjoy Awaji Island's specialty "Kawara-yaki" at the facility (additional charge required).
