I bought two and my friend Bob got one. He said he didn't know what it was but if I was buying two he better grab the last one.

That one tops my list of rums.

So popped the cork on one bottle of Santa Teresa 1796 tonight. Had a bit more bite than I expected - but very good flavor and a long long aftertaste.

Been wanting a bottle of Santa Teresa for so long that maybe my expectations for it were a bit high. Compared to the El Dorado 15 I had last night (staple in my collection) - the El Dorado had less bite and a lot sweeter.

Overall though - Santa Teresa is a great rum, really impressed by the long aftertaste that lingers.

Ron,
Next year you'll have to go to Shack... I brought a bottle of Flor de Cana 21 that was hardly touched... I left it... hopefully it'll still be around to drink.

Hardly touched??? That's just sinful there. The 21 has been on my "to get" list for some time now. I have a couple bottles of 18 but haven't found 21 yet. Guess one of these days I'll have to break down and start using mail order.
