Matusalem Clasico 10-Year

I really liked the 15 but this one is not really close to it. Light colour , quite dry and sweetish , was okay to sip , bit of a burn , but like many middle of the road rums i thought it would make a good mixer... But not for me ! Don't know why but it just didn't gel for me , maybe it was my taste buds ? Will give it a second chance tonight...

It's nothing special, but it is still a solid rum. Good for sipping. None artificial aromas, simple and tasty. More of an everyday rum than a special occasion one. Could cost a little less, 15€ would be a fair price.

Vanilla taste similar to spiced captain morgan. Uninspired aftertaste. No go for this price range.

Матусалем 10 классико -
Несколько приятней, чем матусалем 7.
Он жгуч, весьма, но и у него весьма выраженный вкус. В сравнении с матусалем 7 , у которого вкус менее выражен, но все так же жгуч, как и десятка.
За весь вечер дегустации не сумел уловить ничего особенного в этом напитке, говоря об это вкусе.
К слову запах, точно так же: несколько приятней чем матусалем 7, но все же при глубоком вдохе не очень приятно...
этот ром не для того что бы им наслаждаться и по истине смаковать его.
Я ставлю ему твёрдую 6, но не более.

Matusalem 7 : 5+
Matusalem 10 Classico : 6
Matusalem 15 : 7

Truly a high end drink for a discriminating rum connoisseur. A little high on the sweetness scale for me but it is a quality rum.

Alkohol: 40 %
Původ: Dominikánská republika
Aroma: Dominující složkou je kůže, pak trocha vanilky a laku. Vůně je dost výrazná, to se mi líbí. (84 b)
Chuť: Příjemně nasládlý rum, vanilkový. Mísí se v něm jak jemnost, tak ostrost, která je znát zejména v dochuti. (82 b)
Body: 83
Shrnutí: V přímém souboji s kostarickým Centenario 9y Conmemorativo u mě vyhrál Matusalém díky lepší a výraznější vůni, v chuti byly oba rumy srovnatelné, s podobným chuťovým profilem.

I cannot put my finger on it but something tastes really off for me with this rum. The nose is somewhat acetone but nothing unusual. The mouth feel is a little oily with body in a good way. Strongest flavor being a vanilla note but there is a background that isn't licorice but something like that and I really do not like it.

Will certainly try it in some cocktails but not sure this will be anything I use going forward.

Not expensive but not a big deal either. I think Matusalem 7 was even better and also cheaper.

Csak azért hatos, mert nagyon-nagyon sok kedves ismerősöm szereti, és ennyien nem tévedhetnek.igazából akkor én tévedek

Nice bouquet on the nose. Notes of caramel and vanilla are most prominent. The taste is about the same as the nose with a slight burn. The finish is still similar with an increasing sense of burn. Overall not bad but it’s missing a stable/stronger base to stand on. I’m looking forward to trying some of the more aged varieties.
