Chartreuse Green 1970s Bottling German Export

A pre-1972 bottling of green Chartreuse. These bottlings feature the Chartreuse address with 2 digits. In 1972 France moved to a 5 digit system, thus this dates to earlier than 1972. Older expressions of Chartreuse are highly sought after as the liqueur actively eats sugar, mellowing over time and creating an exceptionally rich and decadent spirit. Chartreuse has been made by French monks for close to two centuries now, with the recipe a close guarded secret. The monks have been forced into exile at various times in the past, moving production to Spain at one point.

*Note that no size or strength is noted on this German market bottling but we expect this to be in line with other Green Chartreuse, thus this is likely 700-750ml and approximately 55% Abv.
