What is Chartreuse Green?

Chartreuse Green is a complex herbal liqueur made by Carthusian monks using a secret recipe of 130 plants and flowers. Interestingly, it's one of the few liqueurs in the world that continues to age and improve in the bottle, potentially changing color and developing new flavors over decades.

Why do we love Chartreuse Green?

Chartreuse Green stands out in the cocktail world for its unparalleled complexity, boasting a secret blend of 130 herbs, plants, and flowers known only to two Carthusian monks. This vibrant, herbaceous liqueur offers an intense, everchanging flavor profile that evolves with each sip, making it a favorite among mixologists for adding depth and intrigue to classic and modern cocktails alike.

How do you drink Chartreuse Green?

Chartreuse Green shines when sipped neat at room temperature, allowing its complex herbal flavors to unfold on the palate, but it's equally delightful in spirit-forward cocktails that let its unique character take center stage. This verdant elixir is a welcome companion on crisp autumn evenings, pairing beautifully with rich, savory dishes like roasted game or aged cheeses that can stand up to its bold, herbaceous profile.

Nose: Herbal and sweet aromas dominate. Fresh mint, thyme, and basil mingle with notes of honey and pine. Subtle hints of anise and fennel emerge alongside a touch of citrus peel.

Palate: Complex and intense. Licorice and mint burst forward, followed by layers of herbs like sage, rosemary, and verbena. Sweetness balances the herbal notes with flavors of elderflower and chamomile. Spicy undertones of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove add depth.

Finish: Long and warming. Peppermint and eucalyptus linger, accompanied by a gentle sweetness. Subtle bitterness from wormwood and gentian root appears. The herbal complexity slowly fades, leaving a clean, refreshing sensation.

Chartreuse Green is crafted by Carthusian monks using a secret recipe of 130 herbs, plants, and flowers known only to two monks at any given time. The complex blend is macerated in alcohol, distilled, and then aged in oak casks for several years, resulting in its distinctive flavor profile and vibrant green color derived entirely from the natural ingredients.
