About The Kraken Rum
AS IT IS TOLD, The Kraken Rum is an imported rum from the Caribbean blended with secret spices. Named for the sea beast of myth and legend, The Kraken Rum is bold, rich, and smooth. The Kraken Rum portfolio includes The Kraken Black Spiced Rum, made from unique Caribbean black spiced rum with a lingering spicy finish, and The Kraken Gold Spiced Rum with a toasted oak and vanilla finish that's smooth and tasteful. AS THEY SAY, "To not respect the power of the Kraken is to not respect the sea." So, drink with respect.
