We're in NYC and discovered this restaurant on Yelp, what do you think? Should we try it? (No Picons on the menu, maybe we can teach them) https://t.co/QQAVBbBbWw

@OvershotPar @ElliotMalin Oh we couldn’t see the original post.

[Picon Punch @PunchPicon]

@OvershotPar @ElliotMalin What? That's not even remotely true. The name comes from the name of the liqueur and the person (seen in our profile picture). Is there some new information we don't know?

CC: @PunchPicon time to finish the mission and make this the Nevada state drink.

… @elonmusk should have a Picon punch. Come to Nevada, it’s more chill here

@OyVegas We remember but never saw the spelling atrocity. 🫣🤢 offense taken

@VoteSarahPeters We would love to talk to you about sponsoring this bill if you have interest for this year?

@andrewssports @careyjones @SAVEURMAG Is there anywhere to get Picons in Las Vegas?

[Picon Punch @PunchPicon]

We stumbled across this 2019 Picon Punch article by @careyjones in @SAVEURMAG that might've just put together the missing piece from our original research (1/x) https://t.co/zSTflR0m6k

Found a 290 page dissertation on the Basque hotels in California....some light midnight reading. The Basque Hotel in North Beach appears to have been established in 1893. That's a solid candidate for the Picon origin. Dissertation doesn't mention it though :'(

(4/4) this would further bring together our original purpose for making it the State Historic Cocktail. Forge on!

[Picon Punch @PunchPicon]

We were able to trace the Picon's arrival in Reno to 1897 via bar owners. We know the Picon was HUGE in that period. But we always wondered what re-connected it to Basque Hotels in Nevada. If Elko is the link, this is huge revelation that connects the final dot.

@jungle1 This one is in Winnemucca down the street from The Martin

[Picon Punch @PunchPicon]

This is all y’all’s fault 😁 The menu here is so different. We love the vibe and decor! Waiter said it was Ormachea then Bakarra and now Ormachea’s again with newest owners. Food looks amazing; fewer sides too.

[Picon Punch @PunchPicon]

Whoa. Shrimp scampi on mashed and the chorizo & cheese plate. This is not your father’s menu.

[Picon Punch @PunchPicon]

@aperpetualdisap Not presently. We talked to the owner a few months ago and they are licensed but having trouble with getting the Nevada distributor to pick it up again. We ordered ours online then begged a friend to drive it to Reno

[Picon Punch @PunchPicon]

We like our original aperitifs. The current Picon Amer is sweeter and 1/3 the original pre-prohibition proof. Amer Dit Picon is based on the 1837 recipe. Very bitter & medicinal. Neither taste like Torani

[Picon Punch @PunchPicon]

@ShaftonAnthony @Maynidea2 Yes! At Santa Fe and The Martin we learned not to stir. Others stir many times

Finally made it to The Star. Their Picons blow Bakersfield away. #DrinkAPicon
