Once again, the reading made me realize the complexity and enormity of the world.

I picked up this book because I was researching the Western distribution of tea and coffee in my study of Sri Lankan history. Tea, coffee and chocolate entered the West at about the same time and were popular as beverages. I also wanted to learn about the history of chocolate because I thought that the development of plantations and trade was very significant in terms of European and Asian thought.

That is when I came across this book, "The History of Chocolate". I fell in love with this book at first sight.

Sugar was not always consumed by people as it is today.

When it first began to be distributed in Europe, it was used as a perfume and medicine, and only a very few people with overwhelming power, such as royalty, could own it.

It is a wonderful work that questions what we take for granted. It is also very understandable that the book was introduced as "a world-famous book that pioneered the story of world history through objects.

I picked up this book to learn more about Indian and Sri Lankan teas, and I hit the jackpot. I highly recommend this book. I highly recommend this book.

This book was a kind of antidote for me, as I have often looked at contemporary Sri Lanka in terms of civil war and ethnic conflict.

There are people who are living with various difficulties but are trying to improve their situation little by little. And the results of their efforts are gradually becoming visible in this book.

Of course, this does not mean that all is well and a rosy future awaits us. However, this book made me feel that there is still hope.

I am now more interested in Sri Lankan tea. I am really looking forward to drinking it there.
