Alberto Vollmer, manager of Santa Teresa: “In October last year, we held the worldwide launch of our first limited edition Santa Teresa 1796 finished in Speyside casks. This year, we launched the second special edition finished in Arabica coffee casks. With Santa Teresa 1796 finished in arabica coffee casks, we decided to bring the flavors that characterize Venezuela to the international market. For us, the territory under every bottle of Santa Teresa 1796 is Venezuelan territory.”
