Matusalem Gran Reserva 23-Year

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.

It is a good rum with smooth body and finish but expected more for a 23 year reserva.

hvis det skulle være matusalems svar, på en modstander til zacapa og ligende så er den ikke lige i øjet.
men en ok rom og så kommer den i fed indpakning :)

Exceptional rum with layers of caramel, oak, and dried fruits. Smooth and luxurious.

É isso, bom no nível iniciado. Quando se começa a experimentar melhor, percebe-se as limitações. Em todo o caso, uma boa experiência em módulo, algo penalizado pelo preço.

Bon rhum pour découvrir. Très "vanille, caramel" rhum très agréable !

I expected a lot of this 23 years but I am very disappointed. The nose is round with caramel , brown sugar, vanilla, and for 23 years the oak is not very present. The palate is strong without complexity and does not have much length. Snif !

This is a nice rum with notes of toffee and touch of banana. The problem is it lack that X factor to make it stand out from the pack. The small thing which makes you remember it long after the glass is empty. I would recommend to take quite big sips, as that allows you to get a better taste of the different notes.

It is an OK rum but for my taste... My aspects ware high about the quality about this rum!
