Thanks! Glad it's working for you. I really like your change of using OFTD instead of LH151--keeps the flavor profiles "in the family." I might have to make a batch using that modification.

Like Hurricane Hayward said, let's keep the experimentation going. Tiki Nirvana is within reach for sure.

On a side note---MAN, would I like to get my hands on some Dagger... I feel like a duplicate blend could happen

First off, thanks to Hurricane Hayward for his extensive research on Kohala Bay and its various substitutions!

I've been playing with blends for awhile. I had been playing around with a Coruba/Hamilton Pot Still/Appleton Signature mixture, but when I found out the Mai Kai was using Appleton Reserve, I immediately altered course and came up with the following:

5 parts Appleton Reserve Blend
1 part Lemon Hart 151
1 part Hamilton Black Pot Still Rum

As mentioned earlier, I made the mix today and gave a Corn and Oil (w/ DYI Falernum ala Keiserpinguin) and Planters Punch a shot. In-fucking-credible. I'm shocked a the level of deliciousness and smells. Tiki nirvana... What we obsess over... man... thank you!
