“Solera blending” is a special method used for Matusalem which is used also for other beverages such as sherry.

Newly made rum is added to the barrels in the top level and the blended rum is added to the barrels in the next level partially; blending is done by transferring from barrel to barrel. Rum is matured in the top level barrels for 2-3 years, the second level for 5-7 years, the 3rd level for 9-12 years and few years more in the ground level barrels. Smooth and deep rum is created by vatting different aged rum naturally and maturing for few years in a barrel.
