Trinidad and Tobago | Spiced | 40% ABV | Column Still (1-4) Distilled

Kraken Black Spiced Rum was first introduced by Proximo Spirits in 2010 . The dark rum is infused with 11 “secret” spices, caramel and other natural flavors.

The rum gets its name after the mythical sea creature 'The Kraken'. As legend has it, this terrifying creature attacked ships at sea during the 18th and 19th centuries - possibly for all the rum on board.

This was my introduction to the rum world and my go to for years. Kraken has some very nice vanilla, caramel, and I'd say some dark chocolate notes to it, It's a great mixer and for me a very nice sipper. However it does have a little bit of bite (which for many can find too harsh) but for 47% I'd say smooth. The great thing about this rum is if you're working to build your palate, the high proof of this alcohol I have found will do it for you, overall I love this rum and it will forever be in my shelf and if your into harder stuff I'd say in yours too.

Side Note: The Mexican Kraken is 35% and a lot smoother and sweeter, if you can get access to it get it!!! 9/10

Ce rhum est correct il se rapproche d un mix entre un diplomatico reserve exclusive mais plus sur le caramel et moins bon.ce rhum epicée se rapproche d un morgan spiced black mais meilleur.
Bon pour les melanges mais seul il a un cote un ecoeurant.certains aimeront le coté epicé et sucre.Mais en degustation pas top.note 6.2.

Its a bit overpriced here in romania and for that price u just get an ok mixing rum. I would give it a 3 but I like it very much with coke vanilla.

On le préféra dans un cocktail qu'en simple dégustation, Mais s'il peut faire son effet. Bien construit pour les plates novices

The strength of these mythical Giants is tremendous...a.k.a giant squid. The strength of the Kraken rum is a strong rum hence the name. It has heat and burn, but has a nice taste as well. 11 secret spices to encompass the rum and form some complexity and taste. No keen on sipping it...it's all right, but makes better mixed drinks.

Sampled Kraken Black Spice Rum and found it very very sweet. This might be good as a mixer but definitely not as a sipper but, to each its own. For some it may very well be worth a 9 rating, to me it's a 4.

Il est facile à boire à tel point qu on le croirait coupé à l eau.
Néanmoins je pense qu il peut être sympa dans certains cocktails.

Easy to drink after the first few shots/mixed drinks. After that it gets better to drink and it becomes easier to pick out the flavors/spices.

Good dark rum that works with coke, ginger or in a pinch as a sip...heavy vanilla tones

Smells very spiced, but when tasted the alcool is too prominent.

Der Rum eignet sich perfekt zum mixen mit Cola.

Aber auch pur kann man sich mal ein Glas genehmigen.
