Chartreuse Elixir & Herbal Teas: the winter box set for inner well-being

The Chartreuse liqueur dates back to 1605, when in a monastery near Paris, the monks received a manuscript as a gift from Henry IV's marshal, containing the recipe of an alchemist who was an expert in herbs and could process them to create a beneficial remedy.

Elixir Végétal has a unique flavour, conferred by the 130 aromatic and medicinal plants; it is recommended to be used in sweetened water, as an infusion, or by pouring a few drops on a cube of sugar.

Since their foundation in 1084, Carthusian monasteries have preserved a valuable apothecary tradition, cultivating and processing herbs for medicinal purposes. This ancient wisdom, handed down from generation to generation, reached its zenith with the creation of the herbal elixir in 1737, the basis for the famous Chartreuse liqueurs. Today, alongside their liqueur production, the Carthusians are relaunching their herbal activity with a range of herbal teas.

In this wooden box, the 10cl elixir is presented together with the entire range of Chartreuse herbal teas, so you can enjoy them on your cold winter nights.
