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

Better than any Captain spiced rum IMO. Good mixer and packs a punch

Not a bad rum, but too dark for me. Even overpowering in mixed drinks.

I drink it neat, like I do all rum, so my rating is based on that, its good just a bit harsh and has this spicy thing going on. Good if there's no zacapa around

Pleasant spiced rum and a good starting point for beginners getting into dark rum, but perhaps it's become a bit of a Jack Daniel's of the rum world? Still, I wouldn't kick it out of the rum cabinet!

As a traditionalist, I don't do spiced rums, but this one is the exception. Kraken is good enough to sip with a few rocks -- the spice doesn't overwhelm the "rum" and blends nicely with the senses. Not a bad starter rum for non-rum drinkers.

The nose is sharp with vanilla, toffee, warm spices and a little alcohol tinge. For a higher proof, the alcohol isn't overwhelming. The flavor follows the nose and the rich vanilla is the star. I'm not one to sip spiced rum however, the little extra warmth from the 47% ABV, really sets off the warming spices and brings everything together into a wallop of flavor. Excellent in any cocktail and can't wait to try it in baking dishes. Yes...Kraken, you are one good spiced rum!

Once you get over the fact that it looks and sounds cool, you realise that it is a super bad rum.
