Chartreuse
Green Chartreuse is intense and herbal, with alpine herbs, mint and pine, and is the key to classics like the Last Word. Yellow Chartreuse is softer and sweeter, with honey and floral notes, and works in a Naked and Famous or on ice after dinner. The Elixir Vegetal is a concentrated 69% ABV herbal elixir, traditionally taken a few drops at a time on a sugar cube. Limited bottlings like Green V.E.P., aged extra long in oak, and the Meilleurs Ouvriers de France cuvee arrive in very small allocations, and Chartreuse supply is limited overall.

How should you drink Chartreuse?
Sip it neat or on the rocks, or use it in classic cocktails like the Last Word (Green) or the Naked and Famous (Yellow).
Why is Chartreuse hard to find?
The monks limit how much Chartreuse they make each year, so supply is tight and many stores receive small allocations.
