ABSTRACT:
A tea bag package including a filter container for a product such as tee, comprising an envelope to be opened, said envelope enclosing the filter container, and a pull element which is associated with the filter container and can be pulled through an opening in the envelope. The envelope comprises an external cover sheet fold, whose overlapping sheet portions are releasably connected to each other, thus to hold the envelope in a closed condition. The cover sheet fold has an opening at its back. The pull element is formed by a pull element fold and comprises a back which can be grasped as a grip member in the opening of the cover element fold. The pull element fold or its sheet portions basically shield the opening in a closed condition of the envelope. The filter container is designed to be foldable in its center at its longitudinal side, namely with the edge ends being contiguous with the pull element fold and being spaced apart from the free edge ends of the pull element fold.
