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.

The Kraken Rum is sweet and spiced to the Max. It reminds me more on italian Amaretto then on Rum. But still good for sipping Small Glases with a nice girlfriend at the fireplace. But Mixing it is a challange. Happy to give me some Kraken Cocktail advices.

One of the few spiced rhum which is good to drinm alone if you like it (very) sweet. High alcool (46%). Good for drinks also, especially rhim and cokes, which I find better with spiced rhum than regular rhum.

Decent all round spiced rum, better than some but certainly not the best. Good choice for mixing, or on a night out, wouldn't use it for a special occasion.

This is one of my favorite rums. Deep, rich flavors and color. Bold and very enjoyable. One that i will drink again .

I must admit I only bought this because I liked the look of the bottle. Now I love it tend to just drink it with coke not neat.

Not a joke this Kraken, it is a nice result if you're into this kind of spiced rums. Very rough nose at first but then opens up nicely with strong Carambar (caramel candy bar) aroms. Easy to drink straight, very smooth.

Gourmand, généreux, sans prétention à déguster mélangé en Cuba Libre.
Personnellement son ressemblance avec le Captain Morgan Black Spiced et le fait qu'il soit nouveau sur le marché me font croire plus à une copie qu'une idée originale.

Chiamarlo rum mi riesce difficile.
Bevanda alcolica alla vaniglia con retrogusto di rum scadente: lo chiamerei cosí.

Nice and dark with good spice, not too bitter, not too sweet (edit: not too sure about that, but it's not syrupy. sugar est 26gpL), not too alcoholic, and not too expensive. Good strength. A good-value spiced rum when nothing local is available.

Recommended for desserts, baking, and cocktails (in moderation).

As spiced rums go, it's probably a fair rum for the amount it costs. To me it has the distinct feeling of fast paced, industrial production without soul or any real hint of craftsmanship. It seems like a SodaStream pop in the way that it comes across to me. Perhaps like a vodka with lots of aromas/concentrates mixed in to create "something new". To me - they did. I'm not going back there...
