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.

Aroma is very spicy, sweet. Taste is direct flashback to 90's pharmacy cough medicine made with alcohol, liqoirice and sweeteners. Not as thick and black, though... Some condensed cola, maybe Dr. Pepperish taste.

Nice dark colour creates some mystery before tasting. But as you do so, dissappointment appears. Super sweet - definitely not for anyone's liking.

This was my real 1st rum taste which I thought was fantastic. Great for a jumping off into the world of rum

Good run for mixed drinks. It is a nice-looking bottle.

And a little bit better than a Captain Morgan Black.

Smell: Strong vanilla mixed with caramel and brown sugar, green grass, black pepper, candy liquor, some slight coffee notes, slight ripe bananas. Overall decent, interesting but you can tell that it is not a "genuine" rum smell in a way –it is somewhat artificial even if they tried to balance it well (it worked to some extend).

Taste: Medium sweet brown sugar, caramel and vanilla stand out and dominate, there are some other spices – black pepper definitely and some dark tea notes. Some harshness appears in the aftertaste (even burn) from the alcohol. Could be a good mixer with cola and it is doable as a sipper at most.

For around 22€ - discounted in the supermarket it is def worth a try - 5.5.

Deze rum is totaal niet te vergelijken met andere rumsoorten. Ik vind hem waterig met een smaakje, weinig afdronk. Voor mij een no go, misschien voor anderen wel. Wellicht dat het een goed is om mee te mixen?

As much hype as Kraken gets, as far as Spiced Rums go, it's simply one dimensional and boring. The spices seem flat and the the overall flavour of the rum is simplistic. There are far better spiced rums on the market at the same price point which rank far higher in my opinion.

Has notes of spices and sweetness, all of which is overpowered by its harshness. You're better off buying Captain Morgan Black Spiced.
