Welcome to the Internet presentation of Messmer cigar factory Georg and Otto Kruse GmbH

Dear customers and partners,

With a heavy heart, we must inform you that our business was closed at the end of May. This decision was not an easy one, but due to legal regulations and a tragic death, we were forced to take this step.

We would like to sincerely thank you for your long-standing support and trust. It has been a pleasure working with you and providing our products. Your loyalty and partnership made our business what it was.

With gratitude and appreciation,

Ingrid und Thomas Messmer

The Messmer cigar factory in Hegau near the Lake of Constance combines tradition and modernity in a harmonious composition. The modern production processes are supplemented by the use of historical machines. For the wood caskets the own caskets fabrication was retained. With the traditional machines, the caskets will be made and with the a firing machine, made in 1950, the company logos are branded on the lid. Thereby not just any cigar or cigarillo is unique in appearance, also the little wooden boxes show the tradition and craftsmanship of the company.
