Messmer Tea

Messmer is one of Germany's oldest and most prestigious tea brands, dating back to 1852 when it was founded by Eduard Messmer in Baden-Baden. The brand is renowned for introducing high-quality tea to a broader audience and for its innovation in tea bag production. Today, Messmer offers a vast range of products, including black, green, fruit, and herbal infusions.

The tea is primarily manufactured and blended in Germany, where the brand maintains significant production facilities. Messmer is currently owned by the Ostfriesische Tee Gesellschaft (OTG), a powerhouse in the tea industry. OTG itself is a core subsidiary of the Laurens Spethmann Holding (LSH), a family-owned conglomerate that ensures the brand maintains its traditional quality while staying competitive in the global market. The brand's origin remains deeply rooted in German tea culture, specifically within the Hanseatic and East Frisian traditions.
