Chartreuse Yellow Liqueur is a delicately sweet, warmly spicy liqueur famed for its bright yellow hue. Made from a secret recipe known only by two Carthusian Monks in a monastery high up in the French Alps, this exceptionally unique liqueur is considered a milder, more graceful sibling to the original Chartreuse French liqueur. Derived from over 130 different herbs and fauna specific to the area and bottled at 43% ABV, Chartreuse Yellow is noted for its aromatic pops of dark licorice root, green herbs, pepper, honey, and macerated grape skins. These are followed by a palate rich with decadent cream, spring florals, pepper, and more layers of herbs seasoned with lavender, honey, fennel, and cinnamon.
Yellow Liqueur is a slightly sweeter and more mild version of Green Liqueur, however, and enjoys hints of cardamom, anise, wildflower, coriander, honey and citrus. Chartreuse Yellow Liqueur earned a score of 90-95 points from Wine Enthusiast, which called it "gloriously lush.
