Vanilla and caramel take center stage in Kraken Black Spiced Rum, rounded by a sweet, bold spice. RumX tasters often describe it as very smooth, easy to mix, and built for cocktails.

"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."
