In the 'The Blue Gold' project, the unique color indigo is put back in the daylight. Get carried away by the personal stories and the century-old history of the color and product of indigo in El Salvador. Read about this sustainable product, the oldest color, the traditional craft and its ethical production.

Thanks to the knowledge of Hacienda Los Nacimientos, the first 100% organic indigo farm, the reader will not only learn about the sustainable production but also about the culture and sentimental value that is hidden behind the beautiful blue pigment.
