Kraken Black Spiced Rum

"Too sweet for me!"

"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 pure, 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. "

"Rum for after dinner with friends. Too spicy and sweet for my taste. Not suitable for tasting at a certain level. These very sweet rums got me hooked on these spirits and therefore I find it difficult to give it a bad rating because in the end everyone has their own preferences. That being said, unfortunately, I do not consider it a good rum and I liken it to Elixirs such as Arecha or Cubaney (which are not real rums)."

"I used to like it as a mixer, but now it's just an emergency anchor for visitors. Edit: I now offer visitors better things. Will probably end up as a baking ingredient somewhere. Unfortunately, it can't be used for anything else."

"A sweet vanilla bomb with other spices in the background of the vanilla. But it tastes less chemical than other popular spiced rums, so it's actually quite ok. Can be used for mixing if you take the sweetness into account."

"Only with cola"

"spiced rum just :D nothing special but at least here you know what you're getting and there are significantly worse ones. For dark & stormy it's definitely fine! 😃"

"Spiced rum, but clearly too much of the sticky variety. Not my cup of tea."

"It’s not the worst spiced rum. At least it is not overwhelmed by a single spice/ flavour. I think it’s fair to rate this as an average rum given it is ubiquitous and effectively ’the standard’ for most people."

"Ron especiado, no es mi estilo. Mezclado sin dudar! Salu! 🥃"

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

"Dieser Rum hat ordentlich Zuckerzusatz bekommen. Er riecht sehr würzig und süß. Am Gaumen dominiert der würzig/süße Geschmack und überdeckt alle anderen Nuancen, schade. Pur daher zu eintönig, als Mixgetränk gut geeignet."

"Pungente e dritto, ottimo per gli shot"

"On me l'a vendu comme un rhum type herbal mais la note sucrée me transmets une sensation pas naturelle, plutôt chimique comme un médicament. C'est vraiment pas mon style"

"Very spicy and very sugary. Not a tasting rum - but not pretending it is. It is as advertised and honestly, find it quite unpalatable but no false promises. I have drank much worse for such rums 😉"
