Review by Johannes G
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.
Review by Stefan Persson
One of the better Spanish styled “Ron”. It’s well balanced, smooth and not as sweet as most of the “Ron’s”. The nose is fruity and smoky as well as at the palate together with vanilla. Unfortunately is the finish much too short.
Review by La Brute de Futs
I absolutely love this Ron. one of my all time favorite in the Hispanic style. sweet, loads of magnificently put caramel and vanilla. still, it has this smoky wood taste which enhances everything. ideal for novice Rum afficionados.

Not really my cip if tea but a good beginner rum in my mind. Very sweet with caramel, vanilla and dried fruit.

Un imprescindible en mi mueble bar. Muy buen ron
Review by cigares
A fine solera rum, not too sweet and successful overall. Balanced too, but lacks character and watts. Not my kind of rum.
Review by Björn Andersson
Nice and smooth with just the right amount of flavour
Review by Jarek

Review by Timo Groeger
Shopbesuch Rum Paradise Hamburg April 2025. Ist auch nicht mehr als ein Durchschnittsrum. Vanille, Karamell und Schokolade in der Nase. Am Gaumen auch Karamell und Vanille, aber auch sehr alkoholisch, Lösungsmittel kann man herausschmecken.
Review by RumHead
A staple rum. Doesn’t kick up a big fuss, but it’s a solid performer.
Review by Joachim Guger
One of the better standard Ron.
Review by Shawn
Very bourbony so to speak, naturally do to the aging process. I enjoyed this one for some reason, as I'm not a bourbon fan and I like sweet rums. Impressed by this one, could be the mood not sure why.
Review by Godspeed
Not a fan of this. Spicy but in a way that goes against its best use as an easy sipper. Reminds me a lot of some of the more mediocre Dominicans. It’s a shame because I really like rons for easy sipping while doing something else but Venezuela continues to not impress me in this category.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
"However, it is down to the blenders art how easily it goes down. The rum has quite a bit of complexity but it is so well balanced and blended that it doesn't challenge you as some rums can. It kind of sneaks up on you and whispers in your ear..."Read full review →
