Green Chartreuse is one of the most distinctive liqueurs in the world, made by the Carthusian monks of the French Alps to a secret recipe that dates back to 1605. Only two monks at any one time know the full formula, which combines 130 plants, herbs and flowers macerated and distilled at the order's facility near Voiron.
It pours a brilliant, naturally derived green and offers an intensely aromatic nose of mountain herbs, fresh mint and anise. The palate is layered and complex, with notes of liquorice, peppermint, fennel, spearmint, basil and candied citrus building into a long, warming, spicy finish driven by the high strength.
