Matusalem Gran Reserva 15-Year

Aby sa nezabudlo! Rum ktory sa vyraba rovnakym postupom 140 rokov, a vyrazne ovplyvnil rumovy svet.
Tento rum v skutocnosti nema ziadnu vyraznu chutovu paletu, ale je to rum ktory ma skvelu hladku chut a dubovy podton.
Uz len pre jeho historiu som ho nikdy nepouzil na miesanie.

Navyse u nas sa da niekedy zohnat za 20 eur, a za tie peniaze mate v bare kus rumovej historie

This is almost agricole is how harsh it is, but has auch sweeter finish. Lots of molasses, but up front reminds me in subtle ways of Saint James, slightly dishwatery but then the finish hurts hard with the brown sugar/molasses. It keeps getting sweeter, almost like Barbados or even bumbu but harsher. For 15 years, there's a shocking amount of burn. But on ice would be nice. Slightly grassy notes, some fruitiness and nuttiness. Really interesting

A tasty but not outstanding sipper. Plenty of oak.

The nose is leather and vanilla, the taste is sweet, with a fake vanilla flavor which reminds me of Captain Morgan, then comes a taste which reminds me of eggnog, something like eggyolk and cheap Czech inland rum (read: alcohol with spices, not a real rum), according to hydrometer test I found on the internet, only some 5g of sugar was added, but the taste is mainly artificial flavors in my opinion, the aftertaste is prickling alcohol sensation, but not unpleasant. No wood is present in smell, taste nor aftertaste, which means 15 is only a number here, definitely not the age. It would be actually a nice spiced rum for half of the price, but for the money it is sold I got better options, e.g. Appleton 12, El Dorado 12.

Sipping rum, really appreciate it, oaky, i recommend, will probably be liked by most people

One of the bottles that introduced me to The world of rum.
Today I find it a little boring.

Zapach: Korzenny, tania bombonierka, wiśniowy ale mocno alkoholowy, musiałem odstawić na kilka minut - pojawiła się beczka i wanilia,

Smak: Wanilia, miód, migdały, świeży tytoń, delikatna dębina, toffi, mleczna czekolada, delikatna nuta zakurzonej szafy, słodycz raczej średnia.

W smaku jest pewna szlachetna nuta wynikająca ze starzenia. Maksymalny dodatek cukru w przypadku tego rumu to 5g co czuć i uwierzcie mi absolutnie nie potrzeba więcej. Dziwnie lekki oraz średnio intensywny nawet jak na dominikanę która ma dość łagodny rumowy profil. Zapach jest mocno alkoholowy ale smak to zupełna przeciwstawność - lekki, okrągły i przyjemny. Super rum do picia solo

OCENA: 78/100

Taste of caramell, plums, spicy, wood, plums.. Dominica style.

I just saw reviews, and i am quite suprised with so many bad comments. Ok, i am rookie on Rum journey, but i just love this one. If someone can tell me better one within same price range, i would be thankfull. Cheers!

Gefiel mir am Anfang nicht so, wurde immer besser als die Flasche sich mit den Monaten leerte.
