100cl - The bottle is a reproduction of the one used in 1840. Cork stopper and back label sealed with wax. Each bottle is numbered. Wooden box branded with the symbol of the Carthusian Order.
Elaboration
Produced each year in limited quantities, the Chartreuse V.E.P. is made using the same processes as the Chartreuse Jaune. The Carthusians took care to select certain traditional yellow liqueurs which will continue to age for many years in demi-muids. The patina of time allows it to develop aromas of great complexity and long persistence.
Tasting notes
