Chartreuse liqueur will soon be in short supply

 



French monks have decided to limit production of green Chartreuse to concentrate on “solitude and prayer.”

Chartreuse is an herbal, bitter liqueur made using a secretive blend of 130 plants, herbs and flowers. The original recipe for the so-called elixir of life dates back to 1605 when a manuscript was bestowed upon the Carthusian monks by François Hannibal d’Estrées.
