Santa Teresa 1796 rum is produced in Venezuela and aged using the solera system that blends rums aged between 4 and 35 years. Before bottling, the rum is aged for a further year in large French oak casks to marry the blends.
This rum was first created in 1996 to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the establishment of the distillery, the Santa Teresa Hacienda.

As an ethical consumer I would normally steer clear of Venezuelan rum, but I got this bottle as a gift. I have to say it is great. Opens with a delicacy and sweetness. Maintains a pure dark rum taste of molasses. Has plenty of salted caramel and toffee for me too. The alcohol bite is there but is wonderfully toned down. An excellent bottle. No wonder Venezuelan rum is so aggressively marketed these days!

A little harsh but not depleasant, let it some time to become smoother. Good rum for me.

One of my favorite venezuelan rums.
Love it neat and will keep on drinking it.
I would say this is similar to zacapa 23 solero, just as sweet and a similar price range. Worthy of a purchase.

I get a small burn/spice on this one (black pepper !?).
Really enjoyable Venezuelan rum.

Tasted neat on 10/3/21 at Laka Lono.
This is a Solera rum that I really enjoyed, enough that I doodled a heart in the notes section along with the words "I like."

Velvety mouth and throat feel with medium but LASTING spice on the finish. Dry carmel, slight allspice, good complexity of almost spiced rum flavors. Not to sweet and love this lasting spice finish! Sipping neat is the way to go with this one.

at first I didn't know what to think of it, but over time I came to the conclusion that it is a very good bottle full of sweet finish with fruity tones

I bought a bottle in a duty-free. I'm very pleased with this rum. Perfectly balanced, a little strong but aftertaste is amazing. Oak, vanilla and fruits. Not for mixing for sure.
After getting a bottle of this from my mother-in-law when she went to Venezuela I was amazed how nice this was. Right up there with the best rum's I've tasted. If you get the chance, you need to try this.

Schönes helles Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase sind Harz und Holz sehr präsent, gefolgt von Zitrusfrüchten und frischem Gras.
Im Gaumen weich und harmonisch, kandierte Früchte, leichte Nuancen von Vanille, Kakau und Holz.
Im Abgang etwas Alkoholschärfe mit Schokolade und Holz.
Ein gutgemachter und ehrlicher Rum, nicht gesüsst. Für Einsteiger die einem "ungeschminktem" Rum begegnen möchten. Natürlich auch für Geniesser. 7+
Nice light amber in the glass.
In the nose, resin and wood are very present, followed by citrus fruits and fresh grass.
On the palate soft and harmonious, candied fruits, slight nuances of vanilla, cacao and wood.
In the finish some alcohol sharpness with chocolate and wood.
A well-made and honest rum, not sweetened. For beginners who want to encounter an "unvarnished" rum. Of course also for connoisseurs. 7+
