A magical herbal experience with notes of ginger, tarragon, basil, dill, eucalyptus and caraway with a fresh, minty finish. In 1605, François Hannibal d'Estrées presented a recipe for an 'elixir of life' to the Carthusian monks. Containing 130 herbs & spices, the recipe was so complex that it took the monks well over a century to crack the code, and production at the monastery didn't begin until 1737. This limited edition of our beloved green Chartreuse, produced 400 years later, is a recreation of the original recipe and is bottled at a slightly higher proof. Best served chilled neat or over cracked ice. Treat yourself or someone you love so much! This is gorgeous on the lips! France. 750ml. 56% abv Show more
