The nose is smooth with just a slight burn. Slightly nutty with some fruit but not the depth for a sipper. Mixed well with Coke but again not the depth to standout with a citrus soda. Enjoyed but will not stock.

MATUSALEN 15. Another finished bottle, this one from Dominican Republic with high pride in Cuban heritage, this rum is 15 years solera style (NO REAL 15 YEARS OLD), they label this Rum as ”Super Premium” on their website but, it isn't a premium rum.  It really isn't. But as an alternative to the sweet entry level rums, it is okay.
Value for money is okay. Anyhow I only recommend buying it, if you want to try a lighter cuban style of rum, and have trouble finding other options. As for the sipping experience, in my opinion, you can find a lot of better rums in this price range

Another gift at xmas. Loved it with ginger ale at New Years, but again, I'm sure I had a few by then. I do recall the overal smoothness and hints of oak. I was a bit surprised it was a 15 year because it didn't have the wow factor I could have had for a rum aged that long.

This is one of my favorite drinks. The taste is strong, smooth and very good. Excellent on ice or straight up. A bit expensive, not good enough for 15YO rum, but I wouldn't double mind to buy another of it for the collection.

A bit too smokey for me as i like my rums to be more on the sweet and smooth side. If i can remember there was a pretty harsh burn as well.

Very strong and powerful rum.
Soft round smooth attack with powerful long finish.

A bit disappointing for a up to 15 years old rums blend ...

De allereerste Matusalem 15 Year is 130 jaar geleden geproduceerd en stond bekend als de Cognac van de Rums, deze 15 jaar superpremium rum is de perfecte keuze voor liefhebbers die op zoek zijn naar uitzonderlijke kwaliteit en een verfijnde smaak.

Niet elke rum is hetzelfde, en een nipje van Matusalem 15 Year bewijst die uitspraak keer op keer. Een complexe smaak maar toch zijdezacht op de keel, met een uitgesproken boeket van smaken die het beste puur of met ijs genoten kan worden. Uiteraard kan je er ook mee mixen, je drankje zal er gegarandeerd op vooruit gaan!
