How does this rum taste?
Black Spiced Rum, produced in Trinidad and bottled by Kraken, offers a distinct profile. Distilled from molasses and aged for 2 years, it has a rich aroma with sweet notes of vanilla, cherry, and marzipan. Vanilla and spices dominate the palate with added hints of mocha and marzipan sweetness. Overall, it presents a sticky, robust texture, suitable for casual enjoyment rather than meditation. Users appreciate its spiciness and affordability, though it has a mixed reception when sipped neat. This 40% ABV rum works well in mixed drinks like Rum and Coke, making it versatile in use. It's ideal for those seeking a sweet, vanilla-forward spiced rum with pronounced aromatic qualities.

6:On the nose, this is indeed a spiced rum. Spices and licorice are present, but vanilla is even more so. There's also a hint of cherry. 6,4:Sweet on the palate. The ever-present spices (clove) are joined this time by orange. Vanilla is also present.. 6:The finish is sweet, on spices and vanilla. Drinkable also neat....
Quite simple and, as expected, quite sweet on the finish
Dolce e pungente con una consistenza corposa
Another decent rum as long as it’s mixed with cola
