Kraken Black Spiced Rum

Community sees this as a very sweet, vanilla‑heavy spiced mixer with decent price, best in cola or cocktails rather than for serious neat sipping.

Beginner-friendly
Strong vanilla caramel
Great for mixing

This is a nice spiced rum and should be judged accordingly. Very nice and warming with a lot of spices and chocolate. Can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, and in a mixer. I have started using this when baking chocolate cake and it's very good for that as well.

    How does Kraken Black Spiced Rum taste?

    Sweet vanilla cola-style mixer
    Who is this rum for?

    If you like sweet vanilla liqueurs with cola, this fits; if you already enjoy unsweetened aged rums, you’ll probably find it flat and sugary.

    Not really suitable for

    Rum enthusiasts seeking dry, complex sipping rum or anyone avoiding high sugar and artificial-tasting, heavily spiced profiles.

    Not recommended pure, with Coke it’s really good though…

    In der Nase recht süß mit einer schönen Vanillenote, leicht Karamell, schon fast likörartig. Auch am Gaumen setzt sich der süße Eindruck fort, aber noch im angenehmen Rahmen, auch hier Vanille, Karamell, Kaffee, Schokolade, angenehme Schärfe ohne sprittig zu wirken mit einer schönen Würze, ein Hauch Lakritze?, relativ weich, leicht ölig. Muss man auf jeden Fall öfters trinken um die verschiedenen Gewürze rauszuschmecken. Fazit: guter Spiced Rum in ausgefallener Optik, sollte man auf jeden Fall mal probieren.

    Pungente e dritto, ottimo per gli shot
