Been offline for a few days. I generally use equal parts of Mount Gay Eclipse and Coruba, then float a shot of the best Appleton Estate product my budget can stand, which is usually Extra (12 yr). I change it up every so often, but that's what I use most of the time. Sometimes I substitute Appleton Estate V/X for the Mount Gay Eclipse, but I prefer to use Mount Gay Extra Old. As for the floater, sometimes Pyrat, El Dorado, and other premium rums are on sale around here. I wait for the sales before getting any of those. So far AE 21 yr has never gone on sale and I'm reluctant to spring for the $160 even though it would be a treat.
