Felice Bisleri (30 November 1851 – 17 September 1921) was an Italian businessman, inventor and chemist.
He was born in Gerolanuova near Brescia and established the Felice Bisleri & Co. chemical laboratory in Milan, developing the successful "Ferro-China Bisleri", an amaro made drink as an alcohol infusion of cinchona bark, herbs and iron salts. The company also produced "Nocera Umbra" mineral water, named after Nocera Umbra, as well as the "Esanofele", a chemical based on quinine, iron and arsenic to combat malaria.
Bisleri died in San Pellegrino. The Via Felice Bisleri in Milan is named after him. The Bisleri mineral water brand still exists, having been sold to India's Parle in 1969.
