Matusalem Gran Reserva 23-Year

It is not tasting bad - but it does taste a bit fake. Not much oak for all that age. Probably not even close to 23 years....More like 10.

Nice rum but to be honest zacapa 23 is better and about the same price. They are both blended rums between 16 and 23 years. Matusalem 23 has a nice smooth taste with a slight aroma of coffee I find, and a bit of vanilla at the end worth a try but like I say there is better.

Nice and easy, clear view and color. Notes of vanilla, caramel, tobacco an a little orange. Not special, but didn't expect it either, this is a blend but still enjoyable.

Cette bouteille aux charmes ambrée a su delecter mon palais dans un desert de rum de qualité qu’est la Lettonie. Légèrement sucré sans être grossier, son arôme se disperse avec douceur.

Gentle in nose, smooth in mouth but very dry for me. I had it with no ice... maybe with ice it tastes better?

Very well balanced, bit more alcoholic flavor, dark after taste

I think this is good rum.
However, it get too smooth and gets bored.
I like Matusalem 15year more than this.

Tried this at the famous Rum Bar in the beautiful Whitsundays in North Queensland. Lighter than I imagined so not much caramel colouring.. strong alcohol smell at first but settled down after 10 minutes. Dryish , tastes of vanilla , almond or marzipan , brown sugar and a bit of citrus.. not much wood and a shortish ending. Better than the 15 but still a bit dull although worth a try !

Sweet and fruity nice and smooth. A lot nicer than the 15. A really well rounded solera

A bit more sweet than the zacapa but in a company with friends that does'nt usually drink rum, this would be the choice
