Portrait: What makes The Kraken - The Legendary Survivor Series special

The Kraken - The Legendary Survivor Series is like the director's cut of a pirate movie: Darker, more dramatic, and with even more tentacles. This limited edition of the infamous The Kraken Black Spiced Rum doesn't just pop into a bottle - it emerges from the deep sea with the attitude of a monster that's survived a lot. Probably several happy hours, too.

The “Legendary Survivor Series” is part of a marketing campaign centered around seafaring tales, fearless crews, and, of course, the legendary sea monster. Each bottle is like a treasure chest find from a sailor who barely escaped the Kraken - or perhaps invited it in for a drink. The design is striking: dark illustrations, a weathered look, a touch of "Pirates of the Caribbean meets gothic tattoo parlor."

The Kraken originally comes from the Caribbean - the very place where rum brewing and monster tales are equally at home. It's blended and bottled in the USA by Proximo Spirits, who have been releasing it onto the world (and into bars) since 2010. The "Survivor Series" brings a breath of fresh air to the portfolio - or rather, a storm warning.

In short: This special edition is not a simple collector's item, but a statement – for all those who enjoy their spirits with a touch of legend, a dash of chaos, and a bold wink.

Tasting Notes: This is how The Kraken - The Legendary Survivor Series tastes like

• Nose: The bouquet is intense and sweet and spicy – aromas of vanilla, caramel, and brown sugar are clearly perceptible – these are accompanied by notes of cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg, reminiscent of Christmas cookies – in the background, there are slightly smoky and earthy tones, as well as a hint of coffee and molasses
• Palate: On the palate, The Kraken is full-bodied and smooth, with a pronounced sweetness – the typical spiced rum spices – especially vanilla, cinnamon, and allspice – dominate. Added to this are notes of toffee, dark chocolate, and slightly bitter coffee – the texture is syrupy, almost creamy, which gives the rum a certain density and fullness
• Finish: The finish is medium to long, with lingering spicy notes and a slight warmth – the sweetness fades slowly, leaving behind mainly dry spice nuances and a subtle hint of wood and licorice
