Chartreuse Green is made from a blend of 130 plants, flowers, bark, roots, and spices. The process starts with monks grinding the ingredients at the Grande Chartreuse monastery, followed by distillation to capture the aromas, and maceration to extract the active ingredients and natural color. The liqueur is then aged in oak casks before bottling.

Tasting reveals a strong herbaceous and peppery aroma. The flavor includes fresh minty notes, pine sap, and citrus fruits, ending with a bittersweet tea finish. It is often enjoyed neat or chilled as a digestif.

A Unique Liqueur

The production of Chartreuse is a closely guarded secret that has been passed down through generations of Carthusian monks. The process begins with the harvesting of more than 130 different herbs and plants from the surrounding mountains, including angelica, hyssop, and thyme. These herbs are then macerated in alcohol for several weeks, after which the mixture is distilled and blended with honey and sugar to create a sweet and aromatic base. The base is then infused with a secret blend of herbs and spices. The liqueur is aged in oak barrels for several years to allow the flavours to mature and develop.

While there are a number of vintage releases and special editions - the two main types of Chartreuse are the 'Green' and 'Yellow' variants. Green Chartreuse is the original recipe and has a higher alcohol content of 55% while Yellow Chartreuse is a milder version with a lower alcohol content of 40%. Both varieties are enjoyed as digestifs or used as a key ingredient in classic cocktails such as the Last Word and the Bijou.
