Chartreuse
An aromatic liqueur created by French monks in the 16th century. It is made from a formula of 130 different herbs and spices, then aged in oak. Green Chartreuse is quite potent at 110 proof and has a very intense flavour profile. Yellow Chartreuse is lower in alcohol (86 proof) and is ligher and sweeter than its green counterpart.
