Green Chartreuse 55% – Legendary French herbal liqueur since 1605

Green Chartreuse 55% is one of the world’s most iconic and mythical liqueurs – created from a secret manuscript handed down to the Carthusian monks way back in 1605. The recipe is still known today by only a few monks and each bottle represents more than 400 years of tradition, patience and craftsmanship.

This French herbal liqueur is made from as many as 130 different herbs and plants, which give it its natural, intense green color and unique aromatic complexity. The production process is both demanding and time-consuming – and includes slow aging in oak barrels, which adds depth, balance and aging potential.

Green Chartreuse is powerful at 55% alcohol, yet silky smooth and nuanced. It can be enjoyed neat, over ice or as an essential ingredient in classic cocktails like Last Word and Bijou. It also evolves beautifully over time, as each bottle has the ability to mature and change character over the years.
