Product background:

A small distillery was set up in 1720 in Grenoble by Mathieu Teisseire, who at that time produced natural concentrates based on fruits and plants abstracts with ingredients collected at the heart of the French Alps.

Teisseire products became very popular due to its special care in the selection of fruits and use of fresh spring water collected from the alps mountain. To fulfil the demand of the premium syrup, the first Teisseire factory in Grenoble was built in 1912. The brand became the national leading syrup brand in France in 1960 and a second factory was built in 1970 for the rapid growth of the production line.

In year 1993, Teisseire acquired a southern France syrup company Moulin de Valdonne for its same motto in creating syrups using natural ingredients. The brand’s clean and healthy image, especially targeted at family for making pure fruit juices and no artificial flavourings syrups has matched Teisseire’s image in the market as a premium brand. The two started combining their production technique for their future juices and syrups.


The persistence of making syrup free of artificial flavourings, preservatives, colouring and sweeteners, Teisseire became the No. 1 brand of syrup in France. The brand puts a lot of focus not only in the production but also the packaging of the products. Teisseire introduced the first can syrup in 1959, and started a new ergonomic metal can in 1994 to start the fruit juices campaign after combining the product line with Moulin de Valdonne. In order to make handling at bar easier for the bartenders and baristas, Teisseire created a highly appealing design with attractive glass bottle both in 70cl and 100cl, with a clever hinge cap and anti-drop system.
