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 β€œsecret” 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 one is a good one to get you interested in rums in general but nothing too special overall. I found it to have a very liquorice vibe but good as a mix.

This stuff is decent. As far as spiced rum goes I'd go with Kraken over Captain Morgan. Kraken is sweet but a little too sweet to enjoy neat. No real complexity other than sweet and spiced. The stuff is more on the thick end. Rum and cokes would be splendid with this one or perhaps a dark n stormy if you're into those.

Not a huge fan of any spiced rums, they are usually over the top in flavor profile as they're meant to be mixed. Kraken is too strong and forward in spiciness, and that makes it great in some drinks. It's the perfect spiced rum for a dark and stormy which is only reason I have it. The bottle is very cool and no doubt that's why many people are first attracted to it.

Nice mix rum, great with Coke. The taste profile reminds be of the Captain Morgan spiced black rum.

Not a sipping rum for me. Was good mixed with a few sodas but not really what I go for in a rum.

Strong in alcohol and strong in flavour. Caramel/vanilla aromas come in the nose right after the strong alcohol smell. All in all okey rum.

A nice drink mixed with coke,ice and a lime and also works well with ginger beer (and ginger monster). Nice to keep in the collection but nothing special.

This is a fine rum to mix. Affordable. Sweet. Molasses forward. There are far better options for a dark rum, but this is not the worst.
