Yellow Chartreuse is a herbal liqueur produced by the Carthusian monks in France. It is made from a blend of 130 different herbs, plants, and flowers, which are macerated and distilled. The liqueur is known for its distinctive yellow color, which comes from the addition of saffron and other natural ingredients. With an alcohol content of 40%, Yellow Chartreuse has a sweet and floral flavor profile, making it popular in cocktails and as a digestif. It is less potent and sweeter than its counterpart, Green Chartreuse, which has a more intense herbal taste and higher alcohol content.
