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.

Enjoyed with coke mainly. Prefer the flavour to many other dark rums.
Well presented bottle and story. Definitely one I put near the front to show off. Always lots of interest in the Kraken!

Smoothness of this rum is unbelievable. Many reasons to drink it. Sipping is the best way to enjoy it.

Great packaging and branding, it's a rum I want to love, but I don't find the spice flavour works for me, it has a slightly chemical taste to it that I can't put my finger on. I like it fine as a mixer but not really enjoying it as much as a straight drink.

This rum is meant for mixing and not to be sipped. Good for a rum and cola.
One of the worst runs I have ever had. Maybe a bad bottle, but three people at a poker night tied drinking it and no one could/would finish their glass.

To mój pierwszy rum aby spróbować czegoś innego poza bacardi do drinków. W tej roli sprawdza się świetnie! Alkohol czuć, ale nie przeszkadza tak bardzo. W smaku duuuużo przypraw - goździki, cynamon, gałka muszkatołowa itp. Po wypiciu czegoś lepszego trochę traci i nie za bardzo chce się do niego wracać ale żona podkrada do ciast :)
Miło wspominam.
nice spiced rum, Goes nicely with coke, VERY Sweet.

Discovered this by mistake decision on a travel trip. Could not find an upscale liquor store so this was provided to me as a good run. I was Leary at first but mildly surprised, not a bad simple tasting room!
Hail to the Kracken!
I try it its good, but many other is better in this price.

I bought a small bottle to try liked it and bought a large bottle to share with friends. Imagine my surprise when nothing happened. No, buzz at all. I tested it with my proof and trail hydrometer found out that is was less than 10% alcohol not the advertised 47% (94proof) on the bottle. I sent an email to the company, no phone number listed . No response. I took it back to the liquor store ad demanded my money back. The sale clerk said they did not do that on open bottles. I said that I would get the credit card company involved. I finally spoke to the manager who quickly gave my money back. Not the first complaint. DO not buy this product as it is a fraud.

I’m confused by the range in the reviews. I’m not sure if the product varies batch to batch but when I tried it it was overproif and vanilla forward. I found it sweet, vanilla rich and enjoyable. I could sip on it neat with a little burn during the sip. I’m. It sure I’d enjoy in a cocktail as I’d imagine the vanilla would overpower the cocktail. All in all a decent flavored/spiced rum.
