ABOUT

The Herbal Elixir de la Grande-Chartreuse is a unique liqueur made by the Carthusian Monks in France, who have been refining this recipe since 1737. Steeped in tradition and secrecy, the production of this elixir is strictly confined to the Monastery of the Grande Chartreuse, nestled in the Isère region of Rhône-Alpes.

This handcrafted liqueur, also known as "Elixir Végétal de la Grande-Chartreuse," comprises of a blend of 130 various herbs, plants, and flowers, all carefully selected and individually distilled. It is appreciated worldwide for its unparalleled complexity and captivating aromatic richness.

TastingNotesNose: The nose of the Herbal Elixir de la Grande-Chartreuse is a profound explosion of botanicals, featuring dominant notes of fresh mint, anise, and sage. As the aromas develop, nuances of eucalyptus, clove, and lemon balm emerge, encapsulating the essence of a thriving forest.

Palate: On the palate, this liqueur presents a harmonious blend of herbal and floral notes, led by fresh mint, anise, sage, and a hint of citrus zest. A balancing act of sweetness and bitterness comes to play mid-palate, enriched by subtler notes of clove, rosemary, and a hint of ginger.

Finish: The finish of the Herbal Elixir de la Grande-Chartreuse is both complex and long-lasting, with a fascinatingly warm, bittersweet aftertaste. The lingering flavors of herbs and botanicals fade gently, leaving behind an invigorating freshness.

FoodPairingThe Herbal Elixir de la Grande-Chartreuse is traditionally enjoyed as a digestif after meals, either neat, on ice, or added to hot water as an herbal tea. It's also versatile in culinary applications, often used to flavor a wide array of dishes and desserts.

In cocktails, it adds a unique depth and botanical complexity. Try it in a 'Chartreuse Smash', with lemon, mint, and a touch of simple syrup, or experiment with its rich botanical character in your favorite concoctions. Enjoy the Herbal Elixir de la Grande-Chartreuse and discover a centuries-old secret perfected in the solitude of the Chartreuse Mountains.
