Slyly just a little sweet, smooth, and a nice finish. Ron Matusalem 15 is very well done.

Nice aroma with butterscotch and vanilla. A light golden colour with thin but suprisingly clingy, oily legs. The palate is not paticulary sweet or complex but very smooth. You get a subtle tone of vanilla, tobaco and wood. The afterburn is short and smooth.

Makes a good rum and coke if you`re using Mexican cane cola.

I was recently disappointed to find that this is flavored with prune and vanilla - and to make it worse, the original practice of using macerated prunes has been replaced by extract.
It is still a great tasting rum and a bargain at around $20, but I find it harder to consider it a serious contender to other genuine rums in the same style, such as Seales 10 year.
Edit : to reviewer Robin - you seem to give this rum a decent though not glowing review but then a rating of 1??? Did you make a mistake?

I enjoy using a pretty good rum to make my rum and coke (diet coke). This one works great, at a decent price.

Bár a 15 év érlelést nem nagyon vettem észre rajta, számomra ez egy kimondottan finom, önmagában is könnyedén iható, nagyszerű rum. Nem is drága, abszolút megéri az árát!

6,5:On the nose, we have vanilla, butter,caramel and a very light coffee note.
7,5:On the palate, it is only slightly sweet, characterized mainly by a caramel aroma, vanilla, spice, some fruitiness-peach and subtle hints of wood.
7:The moderately long finish again features caramel and vanilla aromas.

Definitely one for fans of scotch. A bite of smoke in the middle makes it a prototypical Dominican rum (and Cuban for that matter). Sweet and smooth around the smoke. Love the bottle too, but for over $30 I was hoping for a bit better. Still, a nice rum that won't disappoint sippers.
