Santa Teresa 1796 is a unique rum, standing above its peers in both quality & process. One of the secrets to this very special rum is the age-old ' Solera' method used for centuries by Spain's brandy & sherry producers. A careful selection of aged rum is put in the Solera, which consists of a number of rows of casks with each tier holding rums of scaling maturity. The rum to be bottled is drawn exclusively from the row resting on the floor (suelo in Spanish), which contains the oldest rums. A portion of the content of each floor barrel is drawn off, & the barrel then topped off with rums from the one directly above it, & so on. The top tier of casks is completed with carefully aged rums, some of which are as much as 35 years old, prepared to make the long journey through the Solera to the floor barrels. To achieve final perfection this sophisticated spirit undergoes a similar crianza in large French oak vats before being bottled. The rum remaining in the barrels is also known as Mother Rum.

This mestizo liqueur of rum & coffee is the result of combining Santa Teresa rums, aged for two years in white American oak barrels, with a refined yet powerful coffee infusion. Araku takes its name from the original inhabitants of Aragua, the state where Hacienda Santa Teresa is to be visited. Nearly opaque, brown hue. Fresh roasted coffee with hints of milk chocolate & aged rum fill the nose. Medium bodied & quite viscous on the entry, while hints of mocha & roasted nuts abound. Finishes with a mild coffee bitterness that adds an unexpectedly refreshing note, inviting the next sip. Serving suggestions
- tremendous as a solo performer or in countless cocktails.
