I have to agree, I think we sampled the best they had to offer and Ron Centranario XX is still my favorite

The Zacapa and the Centranario XX are definitely 1-2 for me, sometimes in varying order depending on my mood. When we had the Havana Club Barrel Proof, it grew on me and was good, but I still like the others better.

Definitely agree Tom. Barrel Proof is good, but it is in a totally different flavor bracket.

Santa Teresa Selecto
distilled by Ron Santa Teresa CA - Venezuela

Brown rum distilled from molasses. Aged 3 to 10 years in used whisky and bourbon barrels.

Awards
Gold Medal Dark Rum
2006 International Sugar Cane Spirits Tasting Competition Ybor City

Maybe some other Venezuelan rum in the MIL visits before then.
