As early as 1939, Mr. Fan Hejun pioneered mechanical tea production at Fohai Tea Factory and successfully produced Yunnan Black Tea, Red Mark, and Green Mark Pu-er in one year. Therefore, early Red Mark Pu-er was believed to date from the production period of Mr. Fan Hejun between 1940 and 1947. By 1949, the Fohai Tea Factory was renamed the Menghai Tea Factory, with Mr. Tang Qingyang taking over as factory director, continuing the production of Red Mark Pu-er. Produced under a state-owned factory, early Red Mark was benefited from having obtained control over raw material selection. Using only the finest wild Yiwu tree leaves, with a rigorous bud-to-leaf ratio and a higher grade, along with traditional tea-making methods and fermentation processes, the tea cakes have a much stronger and more assertive flavor than other Red Mark Pu-er. This lot comes from a seasoned Pu-er collector who entered the market relatively early and was carefully stored in a dry environment in good condition, with slight insect damage to the packaging. The two tea cakes weigh 321g and 334g, respectively. After aging for nearly 70 years, the tea essence is abundant, with a lasting sweetness and a fragrant aftertaste. This early version with bold character printing is considered the pinnacle of Red Mark Pu-er due to its exceptional aging quality and rarity, earning high praise among Pu-er collectors.
