Yeah, little painful mixing Chartreuse, a $57 liquor, with anything.
But we're all a little mad here, aren't we? If we mix it with another $57 liquor, it's ok, right?
Due to its strong flavor profile, Green Chartreuse is rarely used in quantities over an ounce in a drink, and usually considerably less. A $57 bottle will help you make more cocktails than a $57 bottle of a base spirit where you might be using 1-2 ounces each time, just as point of comparison.
