In case many people are wondering why Coruba dark Jamaican rum works so fabulously in a Mai Tai, here's why: After Trader Vic used up the world’s supply of the 17-year-old J. Wray & Nephew, he reformulated his Mai Tai recipe with the 15-year-old J. Wray & Nephew and Coruba.

Coruba is one of the best (after Kohala Bay) dark Jamaican mixing rums - that is, for the money and for what you get in terms of a quality, funky, and versatile product who's history goes all the way back to our Tiki forefathers. Within the Appleton/Myers's/Coruba pantheon, the latter is the more preferred and consistent choice.
