The liqueur has been made by the Carthusian Monks since 1737 according to the instructions set out in a manuscript given to them by François Annibal d’Estrées in 1605. It was named after the monks’ Grande Chartreuse monastery, located in the Chartreuse Mountains in the general region of Grenoble in France. The liqueur is produced in their distillery in the nearby town of Voiron (Isère). It is composed of distilled alcohol aged with 130 herbs, plants and flowers. It is one of the handful of liqueurs that continue to age and improve in the bottle.[1] Types[edit]Elixir Végétal de la Grande-ChartreuseGreen Chartreuse[edit]Green Chartreuse (110 proof or 55% ABV) is a naturally green liqueur made from 130 herbs and other plants macerated in alcohol and steeped for about eight hours. A last maceration of plants gives its color to the liqueur.Yellow Chartreuse[edit]Yellow Chartreuse (80 proof or 40%) has a milder and sweeter flavour and aroma than green Chartreuse, and is lower (albeit not low) in alcohol content.Chartreuse VEP[edit]VEP stands for Vieillissement Exceptionnellement Prolongé,[2] meaning “exceptionally prolonged aging”. It is made using the same processes and the same secret formula as the traditional liqueur, and by extra long aging in oak casks it reaches an exceptional quality. Chartreuse VEP comes in both yellow and green.Élixir Végétal de la Grande-Chartreuse[edit]Élixir Végétal de la Grande-Chartreuse (138 proof or 69% – also 142 proof or 71%) has the same base of about 130 medicinal and aromatic plants and flowers but is more alcoholic. It can be described as a cordial or a liqueur, and is claimed to be a tonic. Sold in small wood-covered bottles.Liqueur du 9° Centenaire[edit]Liqueur du 9° Centenaire (47%) was created in 1984 to commemorate the 900 year anniversary of the foundation of the abbey. It is similar to Green Chartreuse, but slightly sweeter.Chartreuse 1605 – Liqueur d’Elixir[edit]Chartreuse 1605 – Liqueur d’Elixir (56%) was created to commemorate the return of a mysterious manuscript concerning an elixir of long life to the Carthusian monks by Marshal François Annibal d’Estrées.White Chartreuse[edit]White Chartreuse (30%) was produced and sold between 1860 and 1900.[3]Génépi[edit]The monks make a Génépi which is the general term in the Alps for a homemade or local liquor featuring local mountain flora. There are hundreds or even thousands of different Génépi liquors made, many simply by families for their own use each year. As they have been making Chartreuse from local plants for centuries, the monks started in the 2000s to make a Génépi as a sideline product. It is labelled “Génépi des Pères Chartreux” and is generally only available locally in a 70cl bottle, usually labelled 40% alcohol.Cuvée des Meilleurs Ouvriers de France[edit]In 2007, a special edition was created by the Cuvée des Meilleurs Ouvriers de France Sommeliers (Best Craftsmen of France) in partnership with the distillery. It is yellow in color (40% alcohol).[4]Flavour[edit]Chartreuse has a very strong characteristic taste. It is very sweet, but becomes both spicy and pungent[clarification needed]. It is comparable to other herbal liqueurs such as Galliano, Liquore Strega or Kräuterlikör, though it is distinctively more vegetal, or herbaceous. Like other liqueurs, its flavour is sensitive to serving temperature. If straight, it can be served very cold, but is often served at room temperature[clarification needed]. It is also featured in some cocktails. Some mixed drink recipes call for only a few drops of Chartreuse due to its strong flavour. It is popular in French ski resorts where it is mixed with hot chocolate and called Green Chaud.[5]History[edit]Chartreuse counterfeitsChartreuse cellarsOld style pot stills no longer in regular use, having been replaced by stainless steel stillsAccording to tradition, a marshal of artillery to French king Henry IV, François Hannibal d’Estrées, presented the Carthusian monks at Vauvert, near Paris, with an alchemical manuscript that contained a recipe for an “elixir of long life” in 1605.[6] The recipe eventually reached the religious order’s headquarters at the Grande Chartreuse monastery, in Voiron, near Grenoble. It has since then been used to produce the “Elixir Végétal de la Grande Chartreuse”. The formula is said to include 130 herbs, plants and flowers and secret ingredients combined in a wine alcohol base.[7]The book The Practical Hotel Steward (1900) states that green chartreuse contains “cinnamon, mace, lemon balm, dried hyssop flower tops, peppermint, thyme, costmary, arnica flowers, genepi, and angelica roots”, and that yellow chartreuse is, “Similar to above, adding cardamom seeds and socctrine aloes.”[8] However the recipe remains a secret. The monks intended their liqueur to be used as medicine. The recipe was further enhanced in 1737 by Brother Gérome Maubec.The beverage soon became popular, and in 1764 the monks adapted the elixir recipe to make what is now called Green Chartreuse.[7]In 1793, the monks were expelled from France along with all other Religious Orders and manufacture of the liqueur ceased. A copy of the manuscript was made and kept at the Monastery. The original left with the monks. On the way there, the monk was arrested and sent to prison in Bordeaux. He was not searched and was able to secretly pass the manuscript to one of his friends: Dom Basile Nantas. This friend was convinced that the order would remain in Spain and never come back and that the manufacturing of the liqueur would cease. He sold the manuscript to a pharmacist in Grenoble, Monsieur Liotard. In 1810, Napoleon ordered that all “secret” recipes of medicine be sent to the Ministry of Interior for review. The manuscript was sent and returned as “Refused” as it was not a secret but well known. At the death of the pharmacist, his heirs returned the manuscript to the monks who had been back at the Monastery since 1816.[7]In 1838, they developed Yellow Chartreuse, a sweeter version of the Green Chartreuse, 40% alcohol liqueur (80° proof).[7]The monks were again expelled from the monastery following a French law in 1903, and their real property, including the distillery, was confiscated by the government. The monks took their secret recipe to their refuge in Tarragona, Catalonia, and began producing their liqueurs with the same label, but with an additional label which said Liqueur fabriquée à Tarragone par les Pères Chartreux (“liquor manufactured in Tarragona by the Carthusian Fathers”). At the same time, the “Compagnie Fermière de la Grande Chartreuse”, a corporation in Voiron that obtained the Chartreuse assets, produced a liqueur without benefit of the monks’ recipe which they sold as Chartreuse. While the French corporation was acting legally in France, the monks successfully prevented the export of the liqueur to many other countries, since the order retained ownership of its foreign trademark registrations, largely because the recipe had been kept secret.[9][10] On the night of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, one of the proposed dishes for First class was a Chartreuse-based dessert.[11] Sales at the French company were very poor, and by 1929, it faced bankruptcy. A group of local businessmen in Voiron bought all the shares at a low price and sent them as a gift to the monks in Tarragona.[7]After regaining possession of the distillery, the Carthusian brothers returned to the monastery with the tacit approval of the French government and began to produce Chartreuse once again. Despite the eviction law, when a mudslide destroyed the distillery in 1935, the French government assigned Army engineers to relocate and rebuild it at a location near Voiron where the monks had previously set up a distribution point. After World War II, the government lifted the expulsion order, making the Carthusian brothers once again legal French residents.[7]Until the 1980s, there was another distillery at Tarragona in Spain.[12][13]Today, the liqueurs are produced in Voiron using the herbal mixture prepared by two monks at Grande Chartreuse. They are the only ones to know the secret recipe. The marketing, bottling, packaging, management of the distillery and tours are done by Chartreuse Diffusion, a company created in 1970.[7] Other related alcoholic beverages are manufactured in the same distillery (e.g. Génépi). The exact recipes for all forms of Chartreuse remain trade secrets and are known at any given time only to the two monks who prepare the herbal mixture. Chartreuse is commonly used as an ingredient in cocktails, such as a Cloister.[14]Accolades[edit]Chartreuse liquors generally have performed well at international spirit ratings competitions. The basic green offering has won silver and double gold medals from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. It has also earned an above-average score of 93 from the Beverage Testing Institute and has been given scores in the 96-100 interval by Wine Enthusiast.[15] The VEP Green and VEP Yellow have generally earned similarly impressive scores.[16] The basic Yellow Chartreuse has received more modest (though still average or above) ratings.[17]Influence on colour[edit]Chartreuse gives its name to the colour chartreuse, which was first used as a term of colour in 1884.[18] (Livraison et Expédition) All items will be securely packed, individually wrapped with acid-free silk paper, foam, bubble wrap and reinforced cardboard.Shipped from FRANCE with proof of delivery and insured for their value.Any overseas custom taxes and duties are all borne by the buyerNo custom taxes for European CommunityWE SHIP WORLDWIDELes pièces seront soigneusement emballées individuellement et protégées avec du film bulle et carton renforcé,Pour les pays autres que la France, envoi en recommandé avec assurance Ad Valorem à hauteur de la valeur de l’objetImportant points (Notes importantes)PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING OR BUYINGUnless specified otherwise in the description, all our items are previously owned.
