What the recipe numbers mean:

Tea factories, particularly formerly government-owned factories, produce many cakes by recipe, indicated by a recipe number. Recipe numbers consist of four digits. The first two digits represent the year the recipe was first produced. The third digit indicates the grade of leaves used in the recipe. The last digit represents the factory. 7542, for example, would be a recipe from 1975 using fourth-grade tea leaf made by Menghai Tea Factory (represented by 2). There are also those who believe that the third number indicates a recipe for a particular production year.
