Mr,Kyuzo,What is the Italics  

Kyuzo 
Ah, the Italics...That was... the first book on tea written during the Tang Dynasty (in China.
It is a three-volume book that describes in great detail the beginnings of tea, how it was drunk in those days, and how it was produced.
I'll ask Y.K. for some more details.
Hey, Y.K.!
 
  Hello!
I'll start with the continuation of Mr. Kyuzo's story.
The Italics Sutra includes information on the origins of tea, how it is made, the tools used, tea utensils (drinking utensils and cups), and where tea is grown.
