Kraken Black Spiced Rum

wouldn't feel comfortable letting someone "unleash the kraken in my mouth" like the previous reviewer, but i would thuroghly recommend this rum... in fact, i'm drinking it right now with coke and lime - very nice.

usually drink morgans spiced rum--but this is so good----drink all rum neat---

Superb unique taste,if you like rum,this is a must try.

Just tried Kraken for the first time today. Exceptional! Lovely vanilla tones on the nose and a proper treacle flavour. Smooth, too. DO NOT ruin this with cola. Drink it neat, at room temperature and you're in for a real treat.

I used to absolutely HATE the flavor and aroma of hard liquor in any variety. But then my friend unleashed the kraken in my mouth. Now, it's the only liquor I'll even touch

Amazing taste and very smooth to drink.....;)devo

this stuff is delicious with coca-cola! even got my dad drinking it! and the bottle is brilliant the little handles make it perfect for pouring :)

My lovely wife bought me a bottle of this for Valentines (soo good of her!) Beautiful blended recipe of vanilla,caramel and subtle hints of spice.The unique bottle alone is worthy of a purchase.Without doubt the finest Rum(apart from the old SJ) that i have ever had.

love it!!!!

It's no Havana 7 but worth a bash

Sat sipping neat now. Very nice. Don't drink thinking oooooh sailor jerry, drink thinking mmm kraken. Can't believe the amount of love for old sj I thought i was alone, down with the dirty nasty tasteless s h 1 t new rubbish.

great tasting, with regards to itt been like the old style SJ, its completely different, sailor jerrys old style is still avaliable if you look in the right places, but there 1.5 ltr bottles. Kraken is an alright rum, but its a bit tarty, somethings missing with it. Although for the price its a decent rum. Also check out diplimatico, probably one of the best rums avaliable.

Nothing like a great rum to drink you under the table in the Floriday Keys.........

Tried it in whetherspoons yeyerday with ginger ale and lime. Amazing!

Not a big rum connoisseur but I tend to drink Morgans spiced rum when out drinking. While in a pub in London found they did not have Morgans but has Kraken which the barman talked me into.Fantastic tasting rum and just have to get a bottle.

Not bad but smells and tastes of chemical flavours when you drink it straight, had to have a mixer with it to mask it.Might just take some getting used to, but there are far better spiced rums out there. if you want something closer to the old SJ recipe then try "Green Island Spiced Rum"

Just received my bottle of Kraken. Tastes great smells great. I can't put the bottle top back on after unscrewing it for the first time because the thread in the cap isn't really there.

Beautifully smooth and smokey. No bite, no 'ouch' - just aaaahhhh!

This rum is amasing, far superior to old SJ with a lovely nose and a smooth sweetness that makes it perfect for drinking neat

If you're looking for something to relive those old recipe Sailor Jerry moments (like I was) then don't get your hopes up, sorry. Very distinctive, rich flavour but not really the sweet smooth flavour and aroma I was led to expect. In fact it smelt a little 'chemically' at first whiff. I ran it by my friend (and after I stopped running, actually let him try it), he agreed. The search goes on....
