Kraken Black Spiced

Not so good, okey mixer but nothing more. Buy something else.

I know some rum drinkers that even like this one. Perfect for hot weather.

This rum tastes much like alcohol. Anyway, its the right choice with a coke. My rating is 4 + 1 for design.

A strong dark rum, not suited to most.
As with all rums I don't mix.
Therefore I believe this is best served as a winter drink and is certainly good when your feeling run down.Certainly worthy of the name 'KRAKEN'

Read a lot of reviews that absolutely rave about Kraken so I decided to give it a go, Sainsbury's £20, reduced from £23.
Love the colour and the nose is certainly different, but I'm not convinced about the taste. It's not the smoothest, but certainly not harsh, a glowing burn and strong aftertaste.
Tried it neat first, ok, but not really a sipper in my opinion.
Adding 1 ice cube definitely smoothed it out for sipping.
Added coke and was surprised, it makes a great rum and coke.
Not really convinced it will become a fixture in my cabinet, but time might change my mind, along with more tastings.
Cheers graham.
Well I have finished the bottle and I'm sorry to say that I won't be going out for a re fill. I just don't enjoy this rum and quite frankly can't see why it's so highly rated by so many people.
But hey, each to his/her own tastes.
Sadly it's not for me.

either way you can't go wrong. Unique flavor and nice color. I use it more as a mixer

Now thats my favorite rum for the moment! I love the caramel taste!

Just starting to enjoy spiced rums and this one hit the spot

Dette er ikke en sippe rom. Men den passer perfekt i en rom og cola.

This is the rum that will always be somewhere in my liquor cabinet. It is my go to for a mixer with its bold taste and color. It is a great rum for just about anything, definite must have for a mixer, and not bad straight or on the rocks. In all, if I could only have one rum in my cabinet that had to do it all, this would be the one.
