So, my rum mix tonight is 1oz Appleton Estate Reserve, 1/2oz Coruba, 1/2oz Pyrat XO.
I'd never thought of inviting the Pyrat into my Mai Tai, but I'm giving the mix above a try this evening.
Thanks!

This combo is indeed pretty darn good. I don't know that I prefer it to a "1oz Appleton Estate, 1oz St. James Hors D'age" mix, but the Pyrat does give it an interesting "something different".
Great suggestion.

Thanks! Glad it worked out for you.
I have to play with my Mai-Tais to coax interesting stuff out of them as I'm a little on the cheap side and can't play too much with the $60+ rums. I've got the Appleton 12 Year, and do like that (the "Smuggler's Cove version"), but I am really more of a fan of the Vic's version. I found that just a touch of the Pyrat got me closer to that version than anything else so far.
I do get closer and closer to grabbing a nice Martinique at the liquor store, though.
One of these days, I'm gonna get that sucker.
