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 rum is terrible, it taste of licorice and has. It reminds me of a drink that is yet to be completed as the flavours are unbalanced.
The bottle however is awesome and would look good on a bar like it is an old rum. Shame about the drink inside.
I like to add Kraken with Malibu on a warm night mixed with a combination or orange, pineapple, and just a splash of cranberry juice. Also not bad floated on top of some pineapple/orange juice.
Its not a rum I can sip on. Great color and spice, it adds a strong melases and bite to a lime squeeze or cola.

I personally find the Kraken to sharp for sipping. Especially when the rum is already through the throat
very dark. kinda thick. strong but is higher proofed. great mixer. tons of flavor.

As opposed to the great looking bottle and the nice presentation, the rum itself tastes quite chemical...
It is a cheap shot when you're out on the town, recommendable if you like me can't stand tequila. Very perfumed and sweet, but it doesn't matter when you're drunk.
Very unique spiced rum that takes some getting use to. Strong start with a peppery finish. I was disappointed and I will not add it to my bar

Don't judge a book by its cover the great outside has disappointment on the inside.
Couldn't even finish it. Maybe spiced rum isn't for me.

Great Black Spiced Rum for ski slopes 7 out of 10

A great black spiced rum - sweet with vanilla flavour however not as sweet as Captain Morgan Black Spiced, for example. At first a little bit acute, after a few sips it melts оn the palate with its vanilla-caramel savour. It would be a great rum for the ski slopes since its spiced and therefore sweet :)
