Les Pères Chartreux (L. Garnier)
Chartreuse Verte
Chartreuse Verte is my favorite digestif, so I felt it was due for a post.
The aroma is transportive. Like standing in a meadow of freshly cut grass and wild herbs in the summer. In your mouth, a silky progression of flavors unwind: the purest anise and sweet herbs, followed by a fierce bitter bite on the finish that balances the sweetness brilliantly.
I keep a bottle in the freezer and frequently enjoy a pour over a few cubes of ice.

This was delicious, penetrating, intoxicating. Delicious and dangerous.
