About Matusalem Rum
Matusalem Rum has been distilled in Santiago de Cuba since 1872. Created by Benjamin and Eduardo Camp and Evaristo Alvarez, the brand was named after Matusalem from the Old Testament who lived up to be 969-years-old as Matusalem strives for timeless elegance beyond trends and a legacy to be passed down for generations. The most popular golden rum during Cuba’s Golden Age when many prominent artists resided on the island, Matusalem are pioneers in their field. Having introduced the Solera aging system, usually reserved for Spanish brandy and sherry wines, and dynamic aging where barrels are placed at different heights, their rums are of unmatched smoothness and taste. In 2015, a new production facility was established in the Dominican Republic where the microclimate is very similar to Santiago de Cuba.
Rum history allegedly started in the Carribiens in the 17th century when they started to ferment and distill molasses, a byproduct of sugar production. Most of the Rum is aged in oak or ex-wine casks, giving its color and flavor.
We distinguish between 4 different Rum categories, where white or unaged rum is mainly used in cocktails, while dark, spiced, and añejo (aged) rum are mostly enjoyed neat.
Aromas of molasses, spices, vanilla and burnt sugar on the nose. The palate is full of maple and bourbon flavors. A versatile clear rum to add depth to your cocktail.
