Chartreuse(Green)
Chartreuse is a color between yellow and green that was named because of its resemblance to the green color of one of the French liqueurs called green chartreuse, introduced in 1764. But it is typically considered a sub-category of the color green.
Made with a secret recipe developed by French monks in the mid-18th century, green Chartreuse remains a popular cocktail ingredient today. Combining 130 herbs and botanicals and aged in oak casks, the liqueur delivers a potent punch of flavor that lends a distinctive herbaceous edge to mixed drinks. Yellow Chartreuse arrived in the latter part of the 1800s and has a subtle sweetness and lower ABV.
