astery French monks prepared a Chartreuse liquor. One of the monks, a taster, had a simple silver ring with small diamond. He tasted liquor by filling up the thimble but pretty soon he became drunk. So he decided to drip green liquor on the diamond and then lick it off. Having woken up next morning, the monk has looked at the diamond and has suddenly seen that it shines with bright green fire. The monk tried to wash it clean in sacred water, heated it on the candle, but nothing helped. Diamond has remained green forever.

Green Diamond
As the legend says, Green Diamond became known for the first time in small town of Chartres in France. Here in Cartesian monastery French monks prepared a Chartreuse liquor. One of the monks, a taster, had a simple silver ring with small diamond. He tasted liquor by filling up the thimble but pretty soon he became drunk. So he decided to drip green liquor on the diamond and then lick it off. Having woken up next morning, the monk has looked at the diamond and has suddenly seen that it shines with bright green fire. The monk tried to wash it clean in sacred water, heated it on the candle, but nothing helped. Diamond has remained green forever.
