How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy its smooth vanilla-caramel profile and fair price. Critics find it too simple, a bit short and slightly sharp. Consensus: a solid, accessible Spanish-style starter rum.
If you like soft, bourbon-adjacent or Diplomático-style sweetness, this will feel familiar: relaxed 40% ABV, vanilla-caramel focus, and a fair price, but without much depth or funk.
Enthusiasts seeking high complexity, high ABV power or funky profiles, and drinkers who dislike sweeter, polished Solera-style rums.

A very nice and totally balanced solera rum that, unlike its competitors in the solera sector, has been sweetened only slightly to not at all. Santa Teresa thus shows how good a natural solera rum can taste. For me, one of the best Soleras, especially for the price. From the smell an insanely interesting rum, which is super round and balanced in the taste, but not quite as diverse there. Still, the taste is very balanced with facets of caramel and vanilla. It remains a pleasantly warm finish.
Santa Teresa 1796 est un véritable ron de solera du Venezuela. C’est donc un rhum de mélasse titrant à 40%. C’est un rhum obtenu par un mélange constant de jeunes (a partir de 4 ans) et vieux rhum (jusqu’à 35 ans). Combinaison de rhums distillé par colonne et en alambics. Tout ce travail rend ce ron sans trop de sucrosité en bouche (le gros problème généralement des rons). Ron très bien équilibré, un boisé maîtrisé, une belle pointe d’épices. C’est top 👍 Et une finale longue (malgré que ce ne soit que du 40%) et sèche sur la vanille. Beau ron avec un prix normal, A avoir dans sa cave.
A staple rum. Doesn’t kick up a big fuss, but it’s a solid performer.
A slightly sweet, fruity smell, some vanilla and wood. Also in the taste is vanilla, honey and orange, sweet with some caramel and wood.
