Reference : 2960
Dolin Genepy le Chamois. Using its own alembic still, Dolin has made this Génépy from over 30 local farmers’ herbs since 1821. Adds herbal notes to a plethora of stirred and shaken cocktails.
One of the best substitutes for Green Chartreuse, Dolin Génépy is another France-born herbal liqueur. It is unique to the Savoy region, where its character is derived from alpine shrubbery. It can also be called Genepi if it is being shipped from Italy instead of France. The liqueur inside the green bottle will taste the same no matter how the label spells it.

The particular quality of Vermouth de Chambéry was first identified in 1821 by Joseph Chavasse, whose son-in-law Ferdinand Dolin inherited the recipe and the now eponymous company. Dolin Vermouth was winning medals in Philadelphia, St Louis and London in the late 19th century, and still remains the benchmark for fine French vermouth. A hallmark of Vermouth de Chambéry was the creation of the Blanc (aka Bianco) style, a first clear vermouth, of which the Dry recipe has been celebrated in cocktails from the 1920s onwards.
