Santa Teresa Bicentenario Rum – Review

A good, and very pricey ultra-premium solera, the top of the food chain from Santa Teresa A.J. Vollmer in Venezuela.  I’m going to go on record as thinking it’s too much price for too little premium.

(Review #113 61/100)

Ron Diplomatico Anejo – Review

 Rum Reviews & Tasting Notes, Venezuela  4 Responses »

A puzzlingly schizophrenic rum – I can’t quite make up my mind about how good it is: an undistinguished bottle containing a so-so tasting rum with both a lovely nose and a finish to savour. I’m going to go back to this one, for sure, just to nail my opinion down more precisely.
