KRAKEN BLACK CHERRY VANILLA 40% 70CL

The Kraken Black Spiced Black Cherry & Madagascan Vanilla is an intensely aromatic expression from The Kraken Rum Company, expanding on the distinctive style of the iconic Black Spiced Rum with rich fruity and sweet accents. Its base is a Caribbean spiced rum, enhanced with natural flavours of black cherry and Madagascan vanilla. Legend has it that sailors once brought black cherries and vanilla pods from Madagascar to protect themselves from the dangers of the legendary Kraken. Over time, this combination gave rise to a bold and characterful fusion, now considered an original interpretation of the classic Kraken style.

Bottled at 40% ABV and presented in a generous 1-litre bottle, this cherry and vanilla spiced rum combines intense fruitiness with rich spicy depth. The dark, caramelised notes typical of Kraken are complemented by juicy black cherry, while warm woody nuances and vanilla add structure in the background. This is not a traditional rum, but rather a rum-based Spiced Spirit Drink, in which the aromatic character is clearly brought to the forefront.
