A big bottle of walnut liqueur produced by the world famous Chartreuse company.
Walnut liqueur is a local speciality of Daupiné, the area surrounding the Charteuse monastery.
The bottling is produced using green walnuts, which are harvested by hand on the 24th of June, also known as St. John’s Day. The walnuts are then macerated in wine alcohol (brandy), to which sugar, and a secret array of herbs and botanicals are added.
The result is a spirit that offers up notes of creamy walnut, a little blackcurrant, coffee, green wood, chopped herbs, mint, and slight brandy spice.
Useful in cocktails, Chartreuse Noix is also delicious served poured over ice cream.
