I’m trying something new and found Kraken to be pretty good, over ice!

I drank this pretty much exclusively on our cruise. Definitely a bit sweet though. Good with soda and lime!

Funny, I was introduced to this on Celebrity Cruises during a Caribbean run. I do agree , it's a tad sugary.

This is @bkg! 's fault. He gave it to me when he was over here. It is definitely the nicest rum I have tasted.

OK, my wife loves Rheum. How do you make your jungle bird?

1.5 oz Kraken
1.5 oz pineapple (fresh or canned)
0.75 Campari
0.5 fresh lime
0.5 Demerara syrup (I make mine 2:1 and use 2/3rd of 0.5 oz)

Shake & serve. You can also drop half the spent lime into the shaker to get more flavor from the oils.

I met a guy from Guyana who lives over here. The story he was told in Guyana was that it was the Irish sent for indentured servitude to the Caribbean who invented Rum. They saw the sugar cane fermenting in the sun and went "Oh we know what we can make with that and how to do it". I have not seen anything online to authenticate that story.

Its very good stuff, and reasonably priced too. Certainly my favorite reasonably priced rum.

On our way home from yours, we picked up a bottle of this on the ferry. This is now my new favourite. It is exceptional
