Jules Theuriet
France
Jules Theuriet (1848 - 1912), a wine trader, had his premises at 12 Rue Berlier in Dijon, the firm’s current site. He had a daughter – Juliette Theuriet – who married Antoine “Edmond” Briottet. Edmond managed the Theuriet business from 1912. He kept the name Theuriet, but started using the name Briottet as the primary name for the business. Apart from his wine trading business, he started producing Crème de Cassis (blackcurrant liqueur). Today the 6th generation, Vincent and Claire Briottet, continue the family tradition of making high-quality, artisanal crèmes and liqueurs.
