SANTA TERESA SOLERA RUM 1796

ARE YOU A RUM LOVER?

This is a SOLERA rum. If you have the chance to buy it do it. Forget about coke or anything to mix it. Drinking straight. I was so exited and shock to find a rum from my country

A BIT OF SANTA TERESA RUM DESTILLERY:
Santa Teresa Venezuela's oldest rum producer, has been in the business for more than 200 years. The distillery is located in the Aragua Valley (about 50 miles from Caracas) and is surrounded by 900 acres of sugarcane—the base of rum. (The operation is headquartered at the Hacienda, which was founded in 1796 and is the site of Simón Bolívar's ratification of the abolition of slavery in 1818.)
Venezuelan rum is aged for at least two years, but some of Santa Teresa's reserves are a century old. Pot stills produce the spirit, and the wax seals at the top of each bottle are done by hand. Its commitment to the environment—Santa Teresa has been a staunch proponent of reforestation in the area since 1949—only adds to appeal. "The aromas from one place to another are highlights," says Henrique Vollmer, a fifth-generation distiller who runs the business with his brother, Alberto. "From earth to harvested sugarcane to alcohol being distilled." Santa teresa its been awarded the best rum destillery in the world in 2014.
