Blending Rums - Tiki Drinks and Food

And I think I may not have been as clear as I meant to be - I didn't mean blending rums in a cocktail, I meant blending rums into a bottled batch. So I guess what I was looking for was whether there is a preferred procedure. Can I just combine half/half (or whatever) of rums, or should I add portions of them in increments, should it be primarily one rum (say, 60-80%) with the remaining being a mixture - or are there no real rules and it's just a matter of taste?
