The Kraken is the first imported black rum from the Caribbean blended with over 11 secret spices and weighs in at an impressive 94 proof. Named for a sea beast of myth and legend, The Kraken is strong, rich, black and smooth. While the smooth taste of The Kraken lends itself to be enjoyed as a sipping rum, it can also be enjoyed as a key ingredient in traditional cocktails like the Kraken & cola. The Kraken's proprietary bottle is a replica of a Victorian Rum bottle and features two handles — allowing for easy portability (as well as potability). (from the distiller)
