The Hesperidina was invented by Melville Sewell Bagley and manufactured by the company established by him, Bagley Argentina. Since Bagley ceased production of Hesperidina, the apéritif has been produced by other brands, such as Tres Blasones and more recently, Grupo Cepas,[3] which acquired the brand in 2018.[1]
