Created in 1840, the “Liqueur de Sant” is the first liqueur made from the original recipe of the Elixir Vgtal de la Grande Chartreuse. It was so popular that Father Garnier, attorney and responsible for the liqueurs at the time, later decided to officially name it ‘Chartreuse Verte’, and registered the Chartreuse mark in 1852.

It is still produced and manufactured today by the Chartreux Fathers in their Aiguenoire distillery in Entre-Deux-Guiers (Isre – France).
