What to drink now: Brand new Kraken Black Cherry and Madagascan Vanilla

The Beast is unleashing a new disruptive and refreshing flavour, with The Kraken Black Cherry and Madagascan Vanilla Black Spiced Rum (70cl, 40% ABC) rising from the depths to hit UK shores this month. The legendary black spiced rum has been given a deep, dark twist. Full of deep black cherry notes, it is the newest and most fiendish flavour release from The Kraken yet – one that will cause an unholy commotion amongst rum lovers.

 

The Kraken Black Cherry and Madagascan Vanilla promises a fearsomely fruity and flavourful fusion of the signature black spiced Caribbean rum with rich cherries and an undercurrent of Madagascan vanilla, for a wildly delicious and refreshingly smooth finish.

 

The legend began along the Maritime Spice Route, famous for its Kraken attacks. Sailors’ stories told how the mighty Kraken emerged from a maelstrom, an ocean whirlpool of monstrous size, to suck ships whole into the ocean’s black abyss. Myth has it that crews would carry black cherries and vanilla pods from Madagascar as a remedy for Kraken sucker bites, the freshness counteracting the foulness. Over time, they added this fusion to their rum, resulting in the most delicious concoction yet.

It is a seasonable and versatile flavour that is most refreshing when served simply with cola over ice, garnished with a lime wedge:

Black Cherry & Cola
  • 1 part The Kraken Black Cherry & Madagascan Vanilla
  • 3 parts Cola
  • Garnish with a lime wedge

 

Suitable for vegetarians and vegans, rum lovers can get their tentacles on The Kraken Black Cherry and Madagascan Vanilla from 28th February for £26 at Tesco before wider distribution in April 2023.
