I should have taken a picture of the Old J that I had last weekend, but I approve very much of the Kraken. Its a much different feeling experience than bourbon. It seems to be a much quicker advancement in the change of perception and the ability to spell things correctly while typing… The taste isnt as sweet, its a bit liquorice~y but the bitter component, and nothing else. Yeah. Will continue to explore as I make my way through the bottle. Which is quite pretty.
