Kraken Spiced Rum is an excellent example of spiced rum, with utterly brilliant packaging! This was launched in the UK in early 2010, and it has an extraordinarily rich, spicy flavour. Named for the legendary sea monster, Kraken is a blend of Caribbean rums that should certainly suit any fans of rich, navy-style rum.
Spicy and rich with notes of vanilla and toffee apples. Hints of lime and cinnamon too.
Dark, rich palate. Thick with molasses and tar, and a barrage of cinnamon, golden syrup, nutmeg and charred oak.
Long, very spicy finish.
Have tried many different rums and until now was always raving about morgans spiced rum as the best you could get at a good price but this tops it by a country mile. Beautiful vanilla notes and affordable. You can do no better!
Try it you'll like it. very good product....dont like rum but i like this one:)
Best rum ive ever tried. Gorgeous vanilla/caramel notes and works amazingly well with ginger ale and lime. A truly class act throughout
Nose: Very fruity eraser!, sweetness, chocolate Mouth: Pretty much sweetness, almond paste/marzipan
After hearing people raving about this rum I tried some and I must admit I was a bit disappointed and ended up wondering why everyone said it was so good. Don't get me wrong it's nice and I like the bottle but as spiced rum goes it's not a patch on Lambs Spiced, Morgans Spiced or the original Sailor Jerrys.
