During the Tang Dynasty (8th century), the now renowned Cha-jing-the world's first treatise on tea-was written by Chinese scholar Lu Yu. For Lu Yu, tea was a symbol of harmony and unity within the universe. Out of deep respect for Lu Yu, and in honor of his great achievement, Ippodo uses a special wrapping paper on which the opening lines of Cha-jing are imprinted.
