Anyone ever tried this stuff just over rocks. I've read that this is an old gentleman's drink from back in the dayl. Just curious before I fork over the $45 for the green.
 
i have had the green, and old boss of mine use to make us drink it when we went out, he loved to get us hammered and the green always did the trick
 
I grew up drinking the yellow and I liked it. I chose it when I couldn't get my hands on a Basque version called Izarra, made with similar ingrediants and a small yellow poppy-like flower that grows in the Pyrenees. The green was always a bit harsh to me. For green go with the original Green Fairy - Absinthe! ???

edited to add: If you enjoy the "digestives" then you might also enjoy B&B on the rocks, it's great in a snifter after a big meal. :)
 
Green Chartreuse is potent all right, but delicious served with crushed ice.


mmm... Chartreuse. Get some.
 
Green fire water, good with some crushed ice. That reminded me that I had bottle in the workshop, I know what I'm having to drink tonight... :thumbs:
