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.

not the kind of rum you want to drink too much of. very dark and heavy flavor. morning after effects are rough.
This is my goto for mixing. It seems to go well with anything, but doesn't overwhelm.
This is a great pick for a dark spiced on the cheap. It certainly isn't the most nuanced flavor out there, but it does a solid job mixed or with a a splash of water.

Aroma is very spicy, sweet. Taste is direct flashback to 90's pharmacy cough medicine made with alcohol, liqoirice and sweeteners. Not as thick and black, though... Some condensed cola, maybe Dr. Pepperish taste.

A different rum. Can't really say it's good or bad. You can drink it straight, but it is not a wow experience. But it works great as a mix rum.

Love this stuff with Dr. Pepper but when Captain Morgan Black came along.. It outclassed Kraken completely.
Best served with a ginger beer to add to the spice.

Harrrrrr. Short for harsh in this case. Vanilla and sugar abound. Certainly not my favorite.

You get pretty good rum for this price. It has very interesting taste and smell. You can feel vanilla, ginger and maybe a bit of cherry. Kraken is quite sweet and very hot in a throat but It is acceptable because It is spiced rum.
Nothing for people who seek soft taste.

On the rocks it's okay, and it's definitely better with some coke. It's a well balanced good tasting rum, and I'd buy it again. Solid but not my favorite.
