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."

"Solider Discounter Rum."

"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.."

"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."

"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"

"Not bad catch for beginners it this price category"

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

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

"Bcp trop classique et sucré En resume, mes notes de degutation : Au nez : Caramel En bouche : Caramel, Vanillé La finale plutot orientee vers : Caramel. J'ai remonté la note car c'éait un peu méchant mais bon..."

"I think this is a good entry into rum. It is cheap and easy to drink, though the taste is not that prominent. I found the nose to be very cocoa-like and sweet and I got notes of cocoa, oak and molasses"

"Nose: Alcohol and wood along with spicy notes. Taste: Semi-sweet, taste of burnt sugar with bitter finish. You can mostly taste the wood with candied fruit and vanilla although the taste is not intense and rather seems diluted. Finish: Very short. Overall I am not impressed and can think of dozen rums in this price tag which are much better in terms of value against what you get for your money. "

"Ottimo in miscelazione"

"Un rum per neofiti, con note caramellate, abbastanza dolce ma con un retrogusto alcolico. Il rapporto qualità prezzo gioca sicuramente a suo favore tra i rum da supermercato."

"Rum facile à déguster, aux arômes de miel, caramel et vanille. Rien de bien compliqué mais fait le job sans grande richesse et intensité aromatique. La finale est courte mais pas désagréable avec les arômes du nez et de la bouche"
