Kraken Black Spiced

For your money you get an easy drinking mixer and an unusual bottle well rounded spiced rum

I like to sample neat before mixing, and this has nice flavor. I poured it in my NEAT glass, and while it's a bit oily, it does have some rich caramel colors. It smells of oak and chocolate, with a little burn in the nose. The first sip is sweet in the front or the mouth with a little burn in the back of the throat. It leaves behind an oaky taste with hints of honey, clove, and pepper.

I added an ice cube and it really brought out the chocolate and caramel notes. I won't be adding this to my lineup of sippers, but it makes for a great rum & Coke, and would kick-up a pina colada with some interesting flavors.

Not that great, the bottle is better than the rum.

It's an alright rum. You get what you pay for which isn't that much

A rum with a beautiful black color with a unique taste of melasse. Not bad on ice but better in rum & coke!

Not that
