Matusalem Gran Reserva 15 Años

This was one of the first aged rum I tasted and definitely the first Cuban styled. So now many years after I’m quite sure that that affected my rating. Have to get it a second chance if I run into it.

lecker.....spritik finde ich.....lecker mit schwarzer brause von pepsi oder sinalco.....daumen hoch

Edit: Yes, you have to admit it, you can't deny the initial sin of tasting every rum. Possibly still suitable as a beginner's rum if you're more into the sweet stuff. Again, a little too sweet and artificial as a mixer. Just a sweet rum

Für Abende, an denen man etwas "weiches" braucht. Pur getrunken, ein relativ milder und weicher Rum, leichte Vanille, einfach nur rund. Einer meiner Lieblinge. Zu vergleichen mit seinem dominikanischen Bruder Ron Barcelo Imperial Dominicano. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen.

Unbearably sweet! There it makes me no fun to sniff and taste more precisely.

Its a combination of bitter and sweet. I know its a sin for 15y old rum to mix it with cola, but I just love this combination. I really really really like it cube libre style.

Not my favorite rum.i dont know if it influenced in anything but i just opened a bottle i had stored from back 2013 and the cork snapped.i had to strain the rum to remove the left over cork over fear that it might affect the taste.

Solider Discounter Rum.

I think it's a little too light in body. A little drier than I was expecting with a distinct okay flavour with even bourbonesque after-taste.

6,8:On the nose, there is a basic similarity to his younger brother-10y.We have strong, almost Madagascar vanilla, viscose butter and certainly some nice, smooth caramel and a very light coffee note.Airing brings more concentrated vanilla/caramel dimension, with toasted coconut and wood and sweet spices. In comparison to his younger brother, this rum is more smooth and rounded. 7,5:On the palate, it is only slightly sweet, characterized mainly by a caramel aroma, vanilla, spice, some fruitiness-peach and subtle hints of wood.Let s not forget buttery notes of creme brulee, tiramisu. There is no alcohol burn, except maybe for rum beginners. 7:The moderately long finish again features caramel, vanilla and is smooth..

Scherpe, maar volle smaak

Thus rum originates from Cuba but destilled and matured in the Domenican Republic today, following the old Cuban methods to the point. Beginners may want to add an icecube when enjoying this rum. It is a rum in the cheap end so don't expect too much 😊

An absolute evergreen for me. Available almost everywhere and always at a very good price. I don't share the sometimes poor ratings here (<6). With only 5 grams of sugar (ALKO) added, in this price range, much more honest and likeable than other sugar water. I stick to it: Perfect for beginners or easy sippers.

Not bad catch for beginners it this price category

Smells much better than it tastes. The caramel smell does not arrive on the tongue
