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.

I have shared this rum with many friends and family, and have yet to find anyone who didn't like it. This includes people who don't usually drink spirits neat.
I tried this alongside Plantation XO 20th Anniversary and El Dorado 15. I find it has a similar flavour profile to Plantation XO, but has a bit more character and complexity. El Dorado is a completely different style, I find.
The nose is incredible and invites you to linger longer than you might otherwise. Warming the glass with your hands enhances the nose and flavour further. This is my favourite sipping rum so far.
Many people dismiss rums with added sugar and though I tend to prefer slightly sweeter rums, I'm not so keen on overly sugared rums. Santa Teresa claim 4g per litre added sugar and people have tested it at 5g up to 6-7g. That's nowhere near as heavily sugared as many.
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.
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."

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
The Rum Barrel Review
"On the nose thereโs a lovely dark profile. Fresh ground coffee, dark chocolate, caramel, vanilla, plums. There are some tropical fruits like pineapple and passion fruit, followed by a slight grassy note. Nutmeg, old leather, tobacco and white pepper. On the palate it goes down so easy. Milk chocolate, vanilla, honey, mango, toffee and cashews. Canned pineapple, blackcurrant, coconut cream and coca cola. The tobacco note is back along with some cinnamon. Not crazy sweet, fairly well balanced and easy going. Cocoa butter and orange marmalade. Towards the end is where you get a bit more oak spices and some alcohol heat. The finish is short with cocoa nibs, some oak tannins and maple syrup."
Has a nice light sweet vanilla note.
"Spicy notes and a oaky lavour are very pleasant and not overpowering."
