Without any context it's impossible to answer the question. On its own Xaymaca has a similar flavor profile to Appleton Signature, the biggest difference is that its not quite as smooth. So you could use it on its own whenever you want a low funk Jamaican flavor. If you blend with Smith & Cross or EH pot stills you could use it to cut down on the pot still funk in either of those rums, and maybe add a bit of burn to the Smith & Cross which is pretty smooth. Blending it with any of the "dark" rums, you're combining two very dissimilar flavor profiles together.
