Green Chartreuse Liqueur

About Charteuse

Discover Chartreuse Gentiane, a rare and beautifully crafted alpine liqueur created by the legendary Carthusian Monks, the same monastic order behind the world‑famous Chartreuse. First bottled in 1998, this expression revives an ancestral recipe the monks developed for their own use—rooted in centuries of herbal expertise and devotion to traditional methods.

Deep in the French Alps, the Carthusian Fathers carefully select and ferment a blend of roots and rootstalk, honoring techniques passed down through generations. This fermented base is then enriched with a meticulous maceration of spices and botanicals, lightly sweetened, and blended with a beetroot‑based alcohol to create its distinctive profile. As with all Chartreuse products, part of its allure lies in secrecy: while the ingredient list includes alcohol, sugar, water, and herbal elements, some botanicals remain confidential, known only to a few monks bound by tradition. With a refined 22.7% ABV, Chartreuse Gentiane offers a balanced bitterness and earthy complexity—perfect for aperitif service, spritzes, or as a modern substitute for gentian‑based liqueurs in classic cocktails like the White Negroni. Presented in an apothecary‑style antique blue glass bottle topped with a cork stopper stamped with the Chartreuse seal, this liqueur not only tastes extraordinary but also stands out as a beautiful addition to any bar. Chartreuse Gentiane is a tribute to authenticity, craftsmanship, and the timeless spirit of the Carthusian monastery—an exceptional choice for discerning drinkers and cocktail enthusiasts alike.
