Not 15 years old. 15 only designates the oldest rum in the blend. My impression is that the average age is likely half of that.
Slight nuance. Too light and a tad sharp to appreciate easily on its own.

A full bodied rum with a light pleasant sweetness. Woody notes dominate but has a creamy finish.

Kunne ikke stå for etiketten, og det er altså IKKE den måde man skal købe rom på. Havde dog undersøgt hvad andre mener om den, så den kan nu ikke være helt tosset, og da den så endda var på tilbud, røg den ned i kurven.
Den bliver meget snart åbnet, og så får i min ærlige mening om den.

bought this in Spaink for a nice price, pretty smooth with a bit alcohol flavours on the end. Taste is sweet with vanilla and french oak, i think this is column distilled but it could do with more aftertaste. Quality around Bacardi reserva

Une certaine finesse et une très belle complexité pour ce rhum dominicain.

I didn't put much stock in this brand until I actually tried it. I found a rich drink with a subtle sweet flavour and a strong aftertaste. Great choice for an entry-level sipping rum, at least for me.
Pour moi LA meilleure marque de Rum - que ce soit le 15 ou le 23 une merveille de dégustation - avec une préférence pour le 23 - avec ses notes plus subtiles.

I try it straight & with cola but this is not my taste.
Sweet at beginning but later flat & alcoholic aftertaste.
I don't buy it again.

when you see nr.15 on the label, you would probably expect more. but its still good rum, with kind of stronger afterburn similar to 7-rated rums in my cabinet.
