Founded 1837 · France · Owned by Diageo
Created in 1837 by Gaétan Picon, a Frenchman serving with the army in Algeria, who made a bitter from orange peel, gentian and quinine. Back in France it became hugely popular, especially in the north and east, where it is still added to beer as "Picon bière".
