The Kraken Unknown Deep Copper Scar 2022 Limited Edition Rum continues one of The Kraken's most imaginative collectible series. While the rum inside remains the brand's signature Caribbean Black Spiced Rum, the bottle has been transformed into a dramatic work of art inspired by the mysteries hidden deep beneath the ocean.
The 2022 "Copper Scar" edition features a striking black bottle streaked with molten copper detailing, representing the remains of shipwrecks scarred by volcanic vents on the seabed. Presented in a matching embossed collector's tin, it is one of the most eye-catching releases in the Unknown Deep series and a must-have for Kraken fans and rum collectors alike.
The Legend of the Unknown Deep
The Unknown Deep series imagines the unexplored world far beneath the ocean's surface, where legends tell of ships dragged into the abyss by the mighty Kraken. Each annual release explores a different chapter of this mythical underwater world through unique bottle artwork inspired by the sea.
The 2022 Copper Scar edition tells the story of wrecks resting among volcanic fissures more than 11,000 metres beneath the surface. Blackened by volcanic smoke before developing a rich copper patina over decades beneath the sea, these forgotten vessels inspired the dramatic colour palette used for this limited edition bottle.
As with previous Unknown Deep releases, the design transforms an already iconic bottle into a striking display piece that stands out in any collection.
The Story Behind The Kraken Rum
Since its launch in 2010, The Kraken has become one of the world's best-known premium spiced rum brands. Named after the legendary sea monster said to haunt the darkest waters of the ocean, the brand combines Caribbean rum with a secret blend of spices to create its unmistakably rich and bold character.
Its Victorian-style flagon bottle, complete with twin carry handles, has become instantly recognisable around the world. Alongside its flagship Black Spiced Rum, The Kraken regularly releases limited editions that expand the mythology surrounding the legendary beast while offering collectors unique bottle designs inspired by maritime folklore.
If you're exploring premium spiced rum or looking for collectible limited editions, The Kraken has become one of the category's most creative and recognisable brands.
The Signature Kraken Black Spiced Rum
Behind the dramatic presentation lies the classic Kraken Black Spiced Rum that has earned worldwide recognition.
Crafted using Caribbean rum and blended with a closely guarded recipe of natural spices, it delivers the rich, smooth character that has become synonymous with the brand. Vanilla, cinnamon, clove, caramel and roasted coffee combine with deep molasses sweetness to create a full-bodied spiced rum that works equally well neat or mixed into cocktails.
The Copper Scar edition proves that while the packaging evolves each year, the legendary liquid remains every bit as satisfying.
