I've seeen people on here suggesting something like 5 parts Appleton reserve to 1 part HJPot still to 1 part overproof rum like lemonhart, Hamilton, or plantation OFTD. That mix supposedly gets close to the Kohala Bay style old school Jamaican dark territory, which is what I am going for. It is a great mix but I haven't tried Kohala bay so I can't compare it. Mixing it with any other Jamaican rums in whatever ratio tastes good to you should be a great way to use it as a component of dark Jamaican Rum, at least from my experience. Hamilton should have a navy strength Rum coming out soon that is a navy blend of English style rums from Jamaica, Trinidad, Barbados, etc. I'm ooking forward to that expression, as well.
