Traditionally made with equal parts gin, Green Chartreuse, maraschino liqueur, and lime juice, but like many others (when using a 40%-43% alc./vol. gin)...
I love this drink and I have and almost full bottle of green Chartreuse but now save for very very special occasions …found and have almost used the whole bottle of Dolin Genepy as a substitute and does extremely well…just a tip to my discerning friends!
I safeguard my bottle of green Chartreuse as well. I’ve found Luxardo Del Santo with a few drops of Vegetal de la Grande Chartreuse to be a closer substitute for green than Genepy. I use Genepy as a sub for yellow Chartreuse, also with a few drops of Vegetal. In any case, must have my sub because the Last Word is always in my rotation.
