Matusalem Gran Reserva 15-Year

Can't really put my finger on it, but it's not to my liking.

good it as a present, checked it out but it 's not my taste
also the price seams to be good but lacks quiet a bit.

En klar favorit! Komplex lukt och smak, kryddig likaså.
Dessutom en trevlig flaska

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

edited to add sugar test results- 5g

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this is flavored with prune and vanilla - and to make it worse, the original practice of using macerated prunes has been replaced by extract.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.

This is definitely not one of the best rum I have ever had. The price gives the expectation of a far better rum than it actually is. Bit of a disappointment, will not buy it again.

Vaniliás karamellás jegyek,ha nem bírod az alkoholt jéggel fogyaszd.Soha rosszabat ne igyak.Semmi bántó nincs benne számomra.Elfér a polcomon ,néha belekóstolok.
