The age makes a difference. Less sweet more alchol flavor. Nice easy enjoyable rum

En rigtig god Rom til prisen. Dejlig duft og sødme

This has the potential for doing well as a replacement for Havana Club 7 años in a coke.
It means well and comes along good some of the way, but it is just not balanced at all. Way too sharp on the alcohol to justify the price point where I live. As a sipper, it can be adjusted with preferably a light, but even a dark agave syrup for balance between alcohol and sweetness. At more than 30% higher price than a Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva this rum lacks loads of refinement to justify it's price - but I didn't want to pour it in coke because of the price, so I modified it with syrup to be able to drink it neat. It took around 150 ml. of agave syrup to get it to where I could truly appreciate it. The taste notes are great then. IT should have been condensed more in my honest opinion. 23 years is a waste of time to get to where this rum ends up. I'm very sorry to say so, but it is my brutally honest assesment, though I hate to depreciate the many years of work going into the end product.

As I get farther into the "great" rums, I find myself coming back to this one to use as a base line. Good taste, straight or mixed.

Molto morbido leggermente dolce. Sensori sul caramello ma non lo trovo interessante e il prezzo è esagerato, preferisco il 15.

Riecht nur sehr schwach. Schmeckt anfangs sehr leicht, dann kräftigerer Eindruck. Schokolade, Orange, etwas Schärfe. Hat aber irgendwie trotzdem kein Profil, keinen eigenen Charakter. Den werde ich vergessen, da sind zum Teil wesentlich billigere Rums besser.

Yep, for me, it taste a bit of the 2000 diplomatico. If u like solera rum you will like this one.

Esperaba más de este ron, no es malo sin embargo la relación de precio y sabor no es la mejor.

Tasted this following a meal in a Peruvian restaurant in Belgium, together with the Rum Nation Panama 23yr. and the Millonario XO. Now, besides eating some well seasoned Peruvian dishes, I had also consumed a significant amount of wine before we got to the rum, so I couldn't taste too critically, but I can say the Matusalem ranked last, well behind the Nation Panama and the Millonario. Slighty dissapointing.

I've tasted this together with the el dorado 15 and i liked this ona a little better.
They were almost at the same price so this would be my choise.

Skvela kvalita. Prijemne aromaticky, bohata chut plna vanilky. Nijak ovocna. Nezapomenutelna 23tka. Ostatni metusalemy zapomenete:)
