Chartreuse Gialla Jaune 300 cl Liquor Jeroboam

In 1605, some monks of a monastery near Paris received, as a present, a manuscript with the recipe of a great alchemist, with several suggestions about herbs and the way of using them to produce a long life elixir. Today, this recipe is used only by the monks of Chartreuse, who are recreating what is call Vegetal elixir of the Grand-Chartreuse. The recipe, still secret, contains 130 herbs macerated in a high quality alcohol and later distilled. The spirit is then aged for a minimum of three years in durmast barrels, in the evocative cellars of Voiron.Chartreuse Jaune is the sweetest version of the famous Chartreuse Verte and was created in 1838. A good digestive after dinner or with ice, as well as very good in the creation of cocktails.
