On the hunt for a cocktail I could use my supply of Hierbas Mari Mayans in, I settled on this. Swapped the Chartreuse out for the Hierbas. It was well balanced - so might be a palatable replacement if you can't find Green Chartreuse.

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!

What are the chances; as I drink this, I am writing an anniversary card to my wife with a BIC pen, on the day the ballpoint pen came to be! Alas, it has been months that one has been able to purchase Green Chartreuse in Canada so I have used Yellow. I am surprised that unless I missed it, while there are Last Word variants that use Yellow Chartreuse, none use gin as the base spirit. So with the assistance of a Google search and AI, "I" can report that using Yellow in place of Green results in a "sweeter and less herbaceous, more citrusy finish" with less total ABV. Still, a very good drink.

Sounds good! I’ve started using Dolin Genepy as a substitute and it’s very good. I have an almost full bottle of green Chartreuse but now save it for very special occasions!!

Great drink!Wondering how comes the green chartruese,seems the original recipe only mentioned chartreuse?May be just about flavor rather than tradition?

Green Chartreuse predates the yellow version, and Green consistently outsells Yellow; hence, if only “Chartreuse” is mentioned, it is a fair assumption that Green is intended.

Made and consumed in a silken dressing gown courtesy Mr Geoffrey Stocker. Not much to say other than a bona fide classic. Unaccountably I was out of fresh limes, so used half/half grapefruit and lemon - perhaps slightly more lemon for the essential balancing acid. I believe an aviation or aviazione may also be in order.

Bang, bang, bang. It’s the drink that shows up in my mind when I have no clue for what to drink next. Miraculous drink

A perfect cocktail. There’s nothing like the real deal… green chartreuse (no subs!).
