Kraken Black Spiced

A great black spiced rum - sweet with vanilla flavour however not as sweet as Captain Morgan Black Spiced, for example. At first a little bit acute, after a few sips it melts оn the palate with its vanilla-caramel savour. It would be a great rum for the ski slopes since its spiced and therefore sweet :)

This is ok but for the price you can do a lot better, lacked complexity for the price point

I had heard so much talk on the internet about kraken and needed to try it. Upon opening I knew it was trying to trick me. The aroma was sweet like syrup. As for taste I don't remember much but I needed more in the morning.

I had tried to do as much research as possible on this fairly new rum. Reading other reviews I knew I had to challenge this beast. I'm one for bottle design and I can't help but smile looking at it. Upon opening I was almost tricked with its sweet aroma. As for taste it's been awhile but I do remember waking up and saying "that's evil, and is it too early for more?" Must have on shelves.

Very nice..beautiful color.. sweet and very smooth

I like it with cola.
Different taste in its price class.
But a bit too creamy for me to drink on the rocks.But it taste different then others so in that way you should try if you like cola with rhum.

I really want to like this one with its ingenious name and design. I enjoy dark rums also but, this one for me fell short. It's licorice flavor is overpowering on my taste buds. I'll always keep a small bottle of Kraken for guests but, it will not touch my glass and for that I give it a 4.

I appreciate the effort by the company but, this just isn't my blend.

This goes great in Egg Nog, probably good straight up as well.

a great spiced rum, nice on its own, a great mixer with coke and a squeeze of fresh lime.. love the packaging

not too bad, in the same ballpark as Captain Morgan and other mid shelf spiced rums. It has a bit more vanilla taste than captain. I get the name, because this doesn't taste too strong, just spicy but if you keep drinking it really creeps up on you while you're raiding English slave ships in your stolen boat that's sailing in Kraken infested waters.
