Chartreuse Voiron Green Vintage 1970s [Base Neck]

Chartreuse Voiron Green Vintage 1970s [Base Neck]

This Chartreuse was made in the Voiron production facility in France, we estimate in the mid-late 1970s. Imported to the US by Schieffelin, who ceased importing Charteuse into the USA around 1969.

Green Chartreuse is the only liqueur in the world with a completely natural green color. It is powerful and unique. Only three monks know the identity of the 130 plants, how to blend them and how to distill them into this world famous liqueur. They are also the only ones who know which plants they have to macerate to produce the natural green and yellow colours. And they alone supervise the slow ageing in oak casks. To bring out all its flavour, it should be consumed very cold, even on the rocks. Traditionally considered an after dinner drink, Chartreuse is more and more being enjoyed as a long drink.

Chartreuse was originally created in 1605 by monks using a recipe for an elixir of long life.  It was produced produced between 1904-1989 in Tarragona (Spain) after the Carthusian Monks were exiled from France. In 1989 the distillery in Tarragona closed down and the production of this liquor returned to France. Today the bottles produced in the distillery of Tarragona have become some of the most expensive and sought after liquors in the world. The recipe contains more than 130 different plants and flowers.
