Tipperary
An herbal Irish whiskey cocktail enriched with green Chartreuse and sweet vermouth.
The Tipperary layers soft, grain-forward Irish whiskey with sweet vermouth and green Chartreuse for a rich, aromatic stirred cocktail. Chartreuse brings alpine herbs, honey, and spice that wrap around the whiskey’s cereal notes. When stirred cold, the drink turns silky and concentrated, with a lingering herbal finish. It sits in the same family as the Manhattan but trades rye bite for rounded Irish malt and complex liqueur structure.
Ingredients
- • 1.5 oz Irish whiskey
- • 1 oz sweet vermouth
- • 0.5 oz green Chartreuse

Did you know?
“Chartreuse’s closely guarded monastic recipe and periodic supply shortages have made drinks like the Tipperary cult favorites; many bars quietly ration Chartreuse cocktails or rotate them on and off menus when stocks run low.”
Bartender's Note
A lighter Irish whiskey lets Chartreuse drive the aromatics without turning the drink aggressive.
