Robb Report: “Green Chartreuse V.E.P. is, without question, the best liqueur on earth. A secret recipe protected by the Carthusian monks of the French Alps since 1737, V.E.P. (vieillissement exceptionnellement prolong), which means exceptionally long aged, spends a minimum of 5 years in barrel. You only need to drink a few ounces, then strap yourself inconversations are more interesting; life is simply more colorful, and sleep exists only in the distant future. I dont know what they put in this stuff (only about seven monks in the world do), but the experience is one of a kind.”
(Vieillissement Exceptionnellement Prolongé) is made using the same processes and the same secret formula as the traditional liqueur, (Green Chartreuse is the only liqueur in the world with a completely natural green colour It is powerful and unique. Only two Chartreuse 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), and by extra long ageing in oak casks it reaches an exceptional quality.
