Mr. Deng Shihai recommended Green Mark Pu-er with large character prints as "the successor tea to the early Red Mark Pu-er and Tong Qing Lao Hao teas." From the late 1950s to the end of the 1960s, the main products from Menghai Tea Factory included black tea, green tea, and Pu-er tea cakes, consisted of later Red Mark Pu-er and Green Mark Pu-er, with the latter becoming a key product. This lot had a long production period and sourced tea leaves from a wide range of areas, resulting in a variety of quality and characteristics. Sourcing the finest Yiwu Zhengshan tea leaves, the tea cakes have a golden glossy appearance, with yellow buds on the surface. After aging in absolutely dry or dry storage, it presents rich layers of flavor, with a harmonious blend of aged fragrance and camphor aroma.
