Chartreuse Liqueur

Chartreuse is a French liqueur made by the Carthusian Monks. It has been made since the 1740's. It is composed of alcohol and it is aged with about 130 herbal extracts to create a rich complex flavor.

Chartreuse is named after the Monks' Grande Chartreuse monastery that is located in the Chartreuse Mountains in France.
