Description
"Electric emerald in the glass — unnervingly vivid, almost luminous. The nose is wild. Untamed. A blast of menthol, pine sap, citrus oil, crushed herbs, and something unmistakably floral — violets and verbena, maybe. It smells like a forest that’s been steeped in spirit.
The palate? Intense. Bold. Immediate. A flood of bitter herbs, peppermint, lemon balm, basil, anise, and liquorice root — all wrapped in an unrelenting, high-proof cloak. There’s heat, but there’s rhythm too. The sweetness tugs you back just before the bitterness bites too hard. It’s chaos, but it's controlled.
The finish is endless. Warming, sharp, botanical. You feel it in your chest.
In summary: Green Chartreuse is not a drink. It’s an experience. Fiercely herbal, monastic, elemental — and unforgettable."
