The first sipping rum I ever purchased. Nice and smooth. Not too sweet. One I'll happily go back to.

So happy to have found it on sale with my student budget. Still the great quality I expect from Matusalem. Very smooth, slightly sweet, no overwhelming wood.

This is a great value rum; at only 40 bucks I usually find myself drinking this as an everyday rum.
It's smooth and tasty and maybe the only negative comment is; it doesn't have much depth.

It's smooth to the pallet, but very standard. Muscovado, molasses, vanilla, a hint of oranges. Very strong and a little awkward alcohol smell when you first meet the glass. I think I'd rather use this as a mixer or to do rum raisins for ice cream. Kind of disappointing since this 15 year old cost a bit and is supposed to be one of their flagships...

Very sweet with vanilla flavor no complexity and no aftertaste. Square and simple, good exemple of solera method. Good for beginners and to finish a dinner but no more. Need to taste 18Y & 23Y to refine my assessment of Matusalem rum.

Smells and tastes of oak, caramel, spice, with a touch of honey. Aftertaste is a little harsh, but not too bad.

Can't really put my finger on it, but it's not to my liking.
