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
Tout est dans le titre !
Sombre, équilibre caramel et amande amère.
Intérêt plutôt limité mais bien réalisé et à essayer pour la curiosité.
After taking the advice of a friend I bought a bottle and wasn't disappointed, but I also wasn't blown away.
It's definitely something I'd have on hand for company or for someone that doesn't want a strong rum to mix with coke.
Je ne m'attendais pas à ça ! Je l'ai trouvé vraiment bon ! Une bonne saveur bien épicée, une bonne odeur ! Et rapport qualité prix vraiment intéressant !
Sweet and smooth taste in a very nice looking bottle.
Great bottle , got this as a Xmas prezzie so was looking forward to it after several good reviews from the local liquor store owners . Unfortunately didnt spin my wheels !! Definitely not a sipper in my humble opinion but an adequate mixing rum . Shared it with my adult kids ( as it got a 6 !! )
Dette er en billig rom, som nok normalt skal puttes i drinks. Men den kan sagtens drikkes rent og smager faktisk overraskende godt. Men må nok sige, at det mest spændende ved denne er nok dens flaske ;)
A rum that screams for the addition of cola. And perfect with it.
I'll start off by saying I'm not a fan of spiced rum. The Kraken is a dull rum, with spices added to boast the profile. Unless you are dressing up for a party as a pirate, and you choose to use this as an accessory, not sure why any rum drinker would select this.
This is potent enough for a good, spicy rum and coke. It can also add some interesting variation to other types of fruity mixed drinks and dark and stormies.
So good but better image than rum.
Straight up - not bad - 5/10
With cola - better - 7/10
Average - 6/10
First time I tried this I hated it but after I was given two bottles it has grown on me (thankfully!)
Nice brand, nice bottle and nice color. Great spiced rum, better than captain morgan and "friends", I like it with cola, but straight it's just an average rum.
As a mixer with coke, not bad but not a sipper. Cool bottle and looks good in the cabinet. For guests that don't know any better
i liked it more with a long shot with coke, lime, or any other coke drink. Although you will taste various spice, still the ending is too light and too alcoholic for me.
Mørk sjørøverrom som må prøves om du liker å blande med cola for å drikke deg full! Er i en helt annen klasse enn andre billigsorter som Capt Morgan etc
Mají hezký marketing a story, ale rum mě moc nenadchnul. tenhle styl koření mi nesedl.
Very licorice taste. I tried it straight up, probably need to try it with soda or ginger beer....
originally bought for the bottle. The rum was ok, mixed with coke made it better. Not a sipping type of rum.
This is my second spiced rum, the first being Capt. Morgan. This rum has a bite to it, I tamed it with a splash of water, to unlock its full potential. I came away with hints of molasses, vanilla, caramel, licorice and coffee a nice starter spiced rum
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
