STORY BEHIND THE WINE

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.

Distilled from fermented molasses in continuous stills in the Dominican Republic, Matusalem 10 Year Old Clásico Rum was aged in ex-bourbon barrels for several years. Made using the Solera aging system, selected aged rums were married and aged for an average of 10 years.
