Chartreuse Green Liqueur 55% 700ml
Possibly one of the best recognized if under appreciated liqueurs on the planet. Made with 132 different herbs ( the exact recipe is split between two monks at one time who each only know half the recipe) in a Carthusian Monastery in the French Alps.The current version of Green Chartreuse dates from around 1764 after a number of modification to a original alchemical recipe from 1605. The taste is syrupy on first approach, flowing slowly, almost ponderously, across the lips and tongue, followed by a jumbled charge of herbal, floral and to some degree citrus or aromatic flavours, cloves, pine, gentian, genepi, fennel, rosemary, sage, wormwood, an herbal and spice carpet bombing of your senses. This is not to mean we don't love the stuff; it is just a very intense experience for all your senses all at once, in a good way.
