Description
Messmer Pfefferminze – Peppermint Tea – with 25 tea bags
Even the ancient Egyptians valued the beneficial properties of peppermint and its refreshingly cool taste. Our Meßmer tea experts select only the best qualities of peppermint and blend them into a refreshing treat.
Peppermint is one of the most popular types of herbal tea. It is not “pepper” that is responsible for their slightly sharper taste, but the high menthol content. Peppermint is a particularly popular type of mint and is grown all over the world. Mainly in South America, Spain and Asia.
PREPARATION: Boil fresh water and pour boiling water over the tea. Let the tea steep for 6 minutes so that the full flavor can unfold and you get a safe food.

About Messmer
Messmer – a formerly independent tea trading company – is now a brand of the Ostfriesische Tee Gesellschaft.
The company has its origins in a delicatessen and grocery store that was founded on September 21, 1852 by Eduard Meßmer in Baden-Baden. Messmer soon became the purveyor to the court of Wilhelm of Prussia and his wife Augusta, who for many years were guests at his father Johann Friedrich Baptist Messmer’s hotel, the Hotel Messmer. In 1886 Messmer was able to open a branch in Frankfurt am Main, which was managed by his son Otto Messmer (1858-1940). In 1895, Otto Messmer had the Messmer Tee trademark protected.
In 1990 the company Ed. Messmer GmbH & Co., Frankfurt am Main and Grettstadt, was taken over by the East Frisian Tea Company Laurens Spethmann GmbH & Co. KG from Seevetal. The current range of the Messmer brand includes 46 types of tea or tea blends, which are sold both loosely and in double-chamber tea bags.
