Review:
A wonderfully fresh herbal Martini with the distinctive taste of Chartreuse. You'll either love it or hate it.
History:
A combination of two very similar drinks, that both originally called for thyme infused gin. The first I discovered at The Lobby Bar (One Aldwych, London) and the other came from Tony Conigliaro at Isola, London, England.
Alcohol content:
- 1.4 standard drinks
- 33.25% alc./vol. (66.5° proof)
- 19.9 grams of pure alcohol
