Matusalem Gran Reserva 23-Year

Decent rum. A little too much whisky aftertaste for my liking but if you like whisky I believe this rum must be great.

i enjoy this brand and so when I saw this offering I picked it up in excitement. Its better than most but not as good as I would have hoped. Starts with a hint of charcoal but the familiar caramel and molasses flavour comes up the rear to save the day. Has a bit of a vegetative lemon funk but barely noticeable. All round a good showing.

Jämfört med sin 15-åriga broder så var denna mycket trevligare. Men för att vara en 23-åring så känns denna smaklös. Bra doft, fin förg och fin flaska men för mycket alkohol och ganska mesig. Tyvärr inget återköp….

Smooth and gentle, sweet and powerful, for all occasions

better than the 15 years(which is not a bad rum) , more round and vanilla , an excellent choice, I need to buy one for my home !

Nice sipping rum, with a bit of sweetness (but not overly sweet). Nothing unexpected, pretty straightforward dark anejo rum.

Smaken är helt OK men Kort eftersmak, för lite ekton för min smak, ganska frän alkohol.

This is definitely a good rum, but it is a bit sweeter than some other true aged rums I have tasted. I believe the Solera 23 refers to a blending process and not the age, and by the taste I agree. It's good, not overly complex but easy to drink and merits my rating. Not sure about value to price, here in Canada taxes make all better rums, from 6-10's expensive compared to Bacardi or the Captain. I would recommend this rum for a solid drinking rum with friends.

Nice but sweet tasting rum for a reasonable price. Not so sure about the 23 tho

Ziemlich süsslich in Nase und Gaumen. Rund und sanft, hinterlässt bei mir aber keine einen bleibenden Eindruck.
