"Chatreuse is like going to the doctors office, if your doctor is Gandalf" Never before has such an exact description been uttered in a human language.
With 130 plants in the recipe there is one that must be effective for your illness. At worst you will be drunk and would no longer care about being sick.
For any drink that calls for citrus juice, squeeze actual fruit. Generally speaking, they weren’t formulated for the sweetened lime “juice” that is Rose’s.
I doubt it will ever really be that popular; it's probably one of the most most foul and unspeakably unpleasant things that I've ever put into my mouth. Not an experience I ever intend to repeat.
After not being able to find a bottle of green Chartreuse anywhere my wife planed a trip to Mexico City which I reluctantly went on. Much to my surprise I stumbled across two bottles of green Chartreuse at one of their liquor stores. Boy was I ever glad I went.
Everyone checkout the documentary into great silence about the Carthusian order. Incredible, watching it is a spiritual experience one of the scenes in the film actually inspired part of the set for the game of thrones.
My favourite Charteruse cocktail is the ‘Green Chaud’. Pour hot chocolate into a mug (up to 3/4 of the way up), add green chartreuse and stir. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkling of cocoa powder for a touch of class :)
Ha ! Ha ! I LOVED your video and your way of pronouncing the names in French ! (Terrible accent, but very funny...) The story of this liqueur is perfectly told and very well documented, and your illustrations are also very well chosen. When I was a kid and on vacation in Savoie in the 60's, we visited the Grande Chartreuse with my uncle and aunt. But since my brother and I were still too young, we couldn't taste this fascinating green liqueur. On the other hand when we left this magnificent monastery, we were treated to Chartreuse chocolates !😋We had to wait until we were older to have this pleasure. Congratulations again for your excellent video. Friendships from Paris ! (Too bad that at some point you didn't choose the great song "Chartreuse" by ZZ Top as a soundtrack... 🤗 🎸 ♬)
Been drinking Chartreuse for 30 years, mostly yellow as it's more palatable straight, but walked down Bourbon street in the French Quarter at Halloween, swigging green out of a bottle in a paper bag, just as the antagonists did in a certain book. In 23 after hunting around New Orleans and not finding it in any bars this time, I left confused. The barman at the airport bar, very enthusiast fellow, understood his liquor and loved his job, informed me that Chartreuse had become a rarity, the monks had rolled back production to focus more on god. And worse, the numbered wooden box edition of VEP I'd casually drained the year before, was now worth in exess of £600 and were projected to become worth up to £20,000. I haven't cracked a bottle since, I'm sitting on them like a mother hen.
Your barman was wrong. The monks did not roll back production. The monks stated that while Chartreuse demand had increased over the past few years (largely due to an increase in home cocktail-making during the pandemic), they would not be increasing their output to meet said demand. This information was misconstrued with many believing the monks were decreasing output. This resulted a run on Chartreuse in the United States - creating a hoarding driven shortage.
Wow, this is a great channel! Only thing I'd like to see in the future would be some additional info on the recipes, and the process for making the cocktail. Mostly looking for your measurements. Great editing & audio, and you've earned a sub from me.
I am saying this as a catholic What in the name of all that is holy could those monks possibly be doing that is more important than making my funny green liquor.
CW....you are very passionate and full of knowledge about your subject and it shows... You have too a rich voice and have had me captivated with your videography skills. Keep up the good work.
One of my favourites. Got a bit over a bottle left so might have to get another one soon 😅 And I know it's absolute sacrilege, but chartreuse goes really well with red bull, definitely better than jagermeister.
being French of course I knew about Chartreuse even when to the museum many times as my sister lives in Grenoble and if you go there during the Patrimoine weekend in September you get it for the museum at a discounted price and when you leave on their parking lot there is a truck that serves chartreuse coktails for $ 4
Chartreuse is a funny word to say, but PLEASE say it right! Also, the original élixir is not green chartreuse, it is a different drink called élixir végétal and is even stronger (69%). The green chartreuse was only created later, not as a medicine, but the monks noticed that people drank it for pleasure and as a digestif. That is why they decided to water it down to 55%.
I think I can help you. Join a monastery with an established distillery, and start experimenting. You'll get there with a bit of luck ! All the best, Cobalt ! Hey, that's the name for your spirit, but it will have to be blue and not chartreuse !
I absolutely LOVE Chartreuse. Helped me survive trade shows for years. My “secret tip”: Try the green V.E.P. if you can get it. It is even a notch up from the regular. Pricy but oh so with it. Personally, I like it neat and I swear by it when it comes to help a sore throat. The yellow one is okay but I prefer to stick with the OG. The stuff is pure magic. Those monks definitely know a thing or two.
Oh what Doc Arnold could have learned if he would have only deigned to have spoken to any foraging village woman within a stone’s throw of his medical school 🤣
@@CometoCheesus it is rare to find, I have a bottle at home, I believe last I looked up, there was a store in California, and a store in Dallas Tx that sold it, but unsure if they still do. (I know the name of the Tx store however)
My ex-wife had an anxiety attack 30 years ago and could hardly breathe - I gave her a small glass of Chartreuse and she calmed down. So - after having seen this video - yes, there must be something medicinal to this green stuff 🙂
Great video, and funny, to boot ! Thank you, monks ! You guys are not sellouts. Keep doing what you're doing, and to hell with demand. It is definitely a liquor of heavenly complexity ! This is why God made the universe. Thanks for the video, CTC. New subscriber.
You need to try and look up Buckfast, a tonic wine made by monks in the south of England, but drank by teenagers in Scotland and N. Ireland. It's definitely an aquired taste. I personally love it, but it definitely has a crazy reputation.
As someone who's suffered 30 years of legislated disclosure, and monitored best-practice, and general workplace rule-following, I admire the robed order's studied 'screw you'. Disclosure of ingredients, government regulation, consumer protections? Not their style, thank you very much~! That being said, you'd think those pricks would make it easier to discern if you're buying the high $ green stuff or the slightly cheaper yellow stuff.
In Portugal, there is a rare liquor called Licor de Merda, invented by a monk, which translates to shit liquor. It actually has a close taste to Baileys.
Actually, they found that increasing the production would distract them from prayer, meditation and so on. The goal is to sustain the monastery, not improve the net income. They don't have shareholders to answer to in any case. So as long as the community is able to live from their work, it's all good. No need to meddle more than needed in earthly matters. That's just for self-subsistance, trendy hipsters be damned (or ideally saved). This is an old thing, basically, monastery were initially endowed with land by lords and kings who did that to ensure their salvation. And they lived pretty well. It didn't seem to some to be quite the way of the gospels. So appeared two types of orders : - Beggars, who, like Buddhist monks, lived from what was given to them - What I'd call "working" orders, where instead of relying of the rents of hundreds of acres of land had to work themselves to sustain the community and not depend on the work of others
@ 1.5 oz chartreuse (I like 2oz ;)), .5 oz falernum, 1.5 oz pineapple, .75oz fresh lime juice….get pebble ice from sonic, use a Collin’s glass, swizzle swizzle swizzle, garnish with freshly slapped mint, freshly grated nutmeg, a slice of pineapple? Sure! Just look up the swizzle method.
great video! had a little bit of a jumpscare seeing you display Rose's Lime Juice (a cordial) with the ingredients in a Last Word. it should be fresh lime!
Those French pronunciations were deathly. Chartreuse as "Chartruce"? lol Arnaud de Villeneuve is pronounced "Arno de Veelneuv" .... at least you got the bit about not pronouncing the ending lol. Btw, that's the same family name as the director of DUNE "Denis Villeneuve". François Annibal d'Estrées, you got the first part of his name right, but the rest is more like "Hannibal d'Estré". (yeah, I can say his name 3 times 🤣🤣🤣) The rest was just good enough lol
A bijou is not pronounced bee-jew it’s pronounced buy-you do some research the are other languages in the world ei French the language of the monks that make the stuff
5:30 I didn't realise that 1800 was several decades after 1799 lol. Whoever wrote this script needs a swift kick in the butt and be shown how to do basic, middle school level history research (I have ceased to be shocked at what people, and Americans in particular, don't know, despite having available the _entire knowledge base of Humanity_ literally in their pocket... and its even searchable!)
I hate how so many Canadians hate on Americans, and I hate how all Canadians are forced to learn French-- and yet somehow your typically American attitude about French names really grates on my nerves, I couldn't keep watching. I know many Americans can't help but have to disdain for anything French, but you think you would put that aside if you're covering a French topic...?
Mendicant monks, who travel to preach (like Franciscans and Dominicans in Christianity). Also Hermits, like Buddhist forest monks. And Warrior monks, like Christian Knights Templar.
11 months after the “we’re going back to being monks” announcement the monks opened a boutique on Champs Elyseé. So stop perpetuating the monks being monks bs. They created a shortage in order to skyrocket the price while hiding behind their spirituality and environmentalis,
Time to crack the formula with science and create Ekartreuse - tastes damn nearly identical to the real deal but it’s simplified and can be really mass produced.
It’s still hard to find unless you’re buying online. I haven’t seen a bottle on shelves at any liquor store in Texas and had to go to 5 stores in Manhattan, where chartreuse is much more common, before one had some bottles in the back.
"Chatreuse is like going to the doctors office, if your doctor is Gandalf"

PLEASE *NEVER* make a Last Word cocktail with Roses lime juice! Don't disrespect the monks. Limes are cheap, squeeze a fresh one
Hear, hear!
yeah Jesus Christ that bottle of rose's was a jumpscare for me 😂
For any drink that calls for citrus juice, squeeze actual fruit. Generally speaking, they weren’t formulated for the sweetened lime “juice” that is Rose’s.

I just found and bought a bottle today myself. As much as I love it I’m not opening it lol

Can't take it with you.
@johncasey1020 well maybe if I can go with a decent enough stash he might let me in 😄
The monks can’t find enough plants to rise the production. And with global warming, there is less plants each year
@@aldark38 the world is greener now than in thousands of years. The monks have given their reasons quite plainly, don't politicise even Chartreuse. 😆
Your barman was wrong.
The monks did not roll back production.
The monks stated that while Chartreuse demand had increased over the past few years (largely due to an increase in home cocktail-making during the pandemic), they would not be increasing their output to meet said demand.
This information was misconstrued with many believing the monks were decreasing output. This resulted a run on Chartreuse in the United States - creating a hoarding driven shortage.
So good they named a color after it!
A delicious color at that 😂
French flows beautifully I bet a bottle of Chartreuse would be quite the language app for a Yankee soaking up some Français
This will turn a beer drinking drunk into a warewolf. 😮
Witnessed this effect among our group during Mardi Gras in New Orleans....The elixir took hold faster than LSD.
I have been a bartender for 15-20 years.
I’ve never used this bottle in any job.
Probably the best cocktail for this is The Last Word.
Wow, this is a great channel!
Only thing I'd like to see in the future would be some additional info on the recipes, and the process for making the cocktail. Mostly looking for your measurements. Great editing & audio, and you've earned a sub from me.
Noted! For the next liquor video, there will be some. Thanks for watching and the kind words
I am saying this as a catholic
What in the name of all that is holy could those monks possibly be doing that is more important than making my funny green liquor.
Here in Detroit we still celebrate chartreuse and the French heritage we have.
Don't you have a Chartreuse bar there in the Motor City?
@CometoCheesus I believe the original bar where the cocktail was made still stands. Don't know if it's still in operation though.
Bro please for the love of all things holy, SQUEEZE FRESH CITRUS! Please ditch the Rose's lime cordial, it's 90% sugar 9% color and 1% cancer.
90% sugar would make it solid.
@@Alsry1 everything that's not water. . .
I lived at the monastery of La Grande Chartreuse. Dom Benoît shown in the film was in charge of the recipe and production.

What I need is a non alcoholic version. Yup. Proud quiter. Now how do I get this flavor or anything like it?
Good question, no clue - Put some Black licorice and steep it in some really herbally tea? 🤷♂️
Someone in the comments said it’s good with vanilla ice cream.
Cool out the alcohol and make a syrup. Be careful man. 😂

"The Last Word" is one of my favorite drinks but I will try "SwampWater" soon!
Woohoo, a new upload!
Wonderful quality content my good sir 🎉😊
Thank you kindly

In South Africa Iv never seen this or absinthe the 2 liquors I want to try
Both delicious - I like Chartreuse better, but if you really like that black licorice flavor, go Absinthe. Also, check out my video on Absinthe!
Also, I remember the Swampwater, but with white grapefruit juice instead of pineapple juice.
it was the favourit drink of Stanisław Lem, sci fi writer

Drank it years ago (before I drank). Straight and in a shot. Coincided with a career change and a bunch of life stuff. I think I’ll look it up again….
It's a great sipper on a cold winter's night...
You can try Izarra. It's very close.
Wow, never even heard of that - but looking now looks like a Basque Chartreuse
I have been enjoying this for many years and I'd like to say I hate you greedy hipsters I had to have a Christmas free of my favourite tipple
You expect people to make the booze AND not get any tail. Thats why.
... Because the monk's are slacking off? 😅😊

Ah, sounds great
Subscribed
Only for the amazing “French” accent.
Ah panic buying. I live in a small town where most people don't care what chartreuse is. The stock on the shelves has not changed.
Where do you live?
@oggeeboggee British Columbia. I feel it isn't as popular in Canadian drinking culture. I don't see it on a lot of cocktail bar menus
What about the red? It is pretty rare and expensive. The VEP stuff
Ist place ahead of Benedictine.!
Reminds me of absinthe
More dynamic in flavor vs. Absinthe, but I do like them both. You should check out my video on Absinthe as well!
I was thinking it sounded like Jagermeister...so, Aussi dégoûtant.

Villeneuve is pronounced "Veel' nuv' " not vellnew or similar. Ee / uv . Neuve sounds like "nough" in "enough"

Never heard that liquor and liqueur are two different words with different pronunciations?
It's a *liqueur* not a liquor.
But on CNN they said there was a shortage of Chartreuse because of Trump and Climate change.
Monastic monks? What other kind of monks are there?
Interesting question grasshopper.
