Captain Morgan Black Spiced

McDonald's would do the same. As others have said very similar to Kraken. Just a mass production take on things. Lots of vanilla and certainly a lot of sugar. Will do as a mixer and that's about it. But Hey it's alcohol so drink up.

Eigentlich nur gekauft weil das Label ansprechend war. Doch super Überraschung. Zimtig und Karamell. Selbst Lakritze und Beeren vermag ich zu schmecken. Sollte man mal machen. (V1.0.)

Well obviously a try to cash in on the popularity of Kraken. Its a good mixer with a nice vanilla note.

Beautiful dark color..not as sweet as Kraken..has more spice flavor..very smooth.. hard to believe its almost 100 proof..great rum

I mean, it's pretty bad rum to begin with, but it does have some flavor which isn't totally offensive. Better than the Bacardi versions...if that means anything.

I´m not a big fan of spiced rum. I tasted the CM Black straight, but could imagine that it´s an alright rum with coke.

I tested Captain Morgan Black Spiced against Kraken with some friends and 4 out of 4 would choose Kraken! The difference is not big in Coke but straight Kraken is the best.....

I’m a whisky guy and new to rum. I started drinking dark and stormy’s/the perfect storm recently and like them. I made these with The Kraken and a huge fan of the flavour so tried Captain Morgan Black Spiced and though it was very average. I couldn’t drink it neat and didn’t taste good in the cocktail. the Kraken is better.

Deep groggy murky sweet dark almost opaque black as promised. now this looks like the blood spilled from the heart of the Kraken, though not a freshly killed beast. the nose is complex like cocoa with hints of clove mixed into the blackest of fermented ceylon teas. this is a bloody mixture of molasses rich rums, all well mixed into a pleasant heart warming experience of sipping tea for Buccaneers. complexity of this rum allows almost the experience of a new encounter with every dram. i sipped two hard two find bottles like they were tea, perhaps a Cask Strength or higher abv version is asking to be released. just add more abv and it will become even better. or in other words will delay the finish to where it should be.
7.5/10 could be an 8.5 if i drink again and feel the same.

Honestly I think it's better than kraken. Great in coke.
