Santa Teresa Añejo je další reprezentant Venezuely v kategorii rumů. Některé české e-shopy ho prodávají jako Santa Teresa Gran Reserva, samotný výrobce ho však nazývá Añejo, proto se držím tohoto názvu. Prodává se většinou za cenu něco málo přes 400 korun.
Zraje metodou solera od dvou do pěti let v dubových sudech.
Už jen to, že ho samotný výrobce předurčuje jako ideální do koktejlů, by mělo každého milovníka kvalitního pití varovat, toto se většinou u skvělých a vyzrálých rumů nepíše.
Je to už delší čas, co jsem se rozhodl ho koupit, a body ani zápisky jsem v té době ještě nevedl, ale mohu ho zhruba hodnotit stejně jako zde už představený nikaragujský Flor de Caňa 7y. Společně s ním ho mám zařazen v kategorii "nechutnal". Pamatuji si, že byl plochý a ničím výjimečný, spíše lehký, málo vyzrálý.
Bodově by se pravděpodobně pohyboval někde mezi 65-75/100, a protože mé poznámky chybí, napíšu aspoň, jak ho hodnotí výrobce nebo prodejci.
Oplývá typickou jemnou vůní a harmonickou chutí. Je výborný samotný nebo v premiových míchaných nápojích.
Zabarvení je jasně žluté, naznačující lehké aroma, které se chová velmi opatrně. Je plné příjemných vůní s tóny dřeva. Chuť je hladká, jemně ovocná, s přetrvávající koncovkou.
Myslím, že tohle nebyly nejlépe investované peníze, při ceně, za jakou se dají sehnat mnohem vyzrálejší rumy, je lepší si 200 korun přidat a investovat je do vyšší kvality.

Unimpressed. Smooth but thin. Good balance without any real complexity. No punch, no highlight. Short finish. I have had other rums from this distillery that were much better. This is much too expensive to buy as a mixer and not nearly good enough to be a sipper. The 5 rating is perfect "easily consumable in a bind". In other words "Is this the only rum we have"? Let's drink!

Nicht gerade viel für einen Anejo, aber zum mixen taugt es.
In der Nase eher stechend.
Im Gaumen auch nicht gerade lieblich, etwas Vanille und Toffee.
Im Abgang ... etwas wie Brennsprit.
Not just much for an anejo, but to mix it's ok.
In the nose rather stinging pain.
In the palate awful, some vanilla and toffee.
The finish ... something like clenser.

Not a very good choice. You can smell a lot of alcohol in the glass and the taste is the same. A bit agressive. I wouldn't take this one again

A bit rough compared to it's beautiful label mare. Worth the price though

If you are in Venezuela go for Pampero Añejo, totally avoid Santa Teresa. It burns and taste alcohol so mixing it is needed. Not to drink straight.

It's not bad for a bottom shelf golden rum, but the price is double.
Avoid.

This rum has a nice dark gold colour, with only a minor alcohol smell. Pretty harsh tasting on it's own, however it makes a decent Rum & Cola... Providing some depth without any harshness.

Spirity nose. Medium bodied. Not hugely fruity. Alcohol gives a nice kick. Every now and then it makes a change.The spirit is offset somewhat by the gentle oak. But at the lower end of things, it doesn't match Chairman's Reserve or 1919. Nothing particularly wrong with it, but a little unexciting and might be better as a mixer, although perfectly drinkable straight up

The baby brother to their 1796
5
/10
out of 10
I had the chance today to either replace my bottle of 1796 that lasted for five months or choose this cheaper little brother that I had never tried. When it came to $18 versus $44, this one won out and I just had to find out for myself if it is really as bad as many of the reviews say. For being only a few more dollars more than bottom shelf rums like Bacardi or Captain Morgan but having the Santa Teresa name, I figured that I could not lose.
It's dry. It burns slightly. It is very young. Is it horrible? Not really. It tastes like it was distilled a few hours ago and then had wood chips added for a couple of more hours. Somehow, it is smooth. It is by no means rot gut. For those on a tight budget and trying to break away from Bacardi and Captain Morgan, this rum was meant for you as your entry into the world of great rum distillers. However, it's older brother 1796 is definitely worth the extra money, but the two cannot even be compared except that both have the trademark Venezuelan quality. This one is also so cheap that one will never feel guilty about using it as a mixer or on the rocks, but neat just does not cut it. Since it is dry, feel free to tie one on and probably have no penalty the next day. It certainly tastes better than Don Q Cristal, which is the ultimate penalty free rum for getting drunk on.
