There is nothing like it. It is woody, green, herbal, aromatic and delicious. From the initial piney taste to the mellow lemon flowery finish, Chartreuse (Green) is like no other liqueur out there. It's flavor is so distinctive it comes through even when mixed with other cocktail ingredients. Mix one part Chartreuse with one part dry gin to one part sweet Vermouth or Vermouth Bianco, for a savory escape called the "Bijou cocktail".
