So, two of my favorite blends are C&D's Black Frigate and Mac Baren's Plumcake. Both are English blends with rum, and I am wanting to explore this genre further. Any suggestions for rum soaked English blends?

I have been reading about Sextant. Sounds very interesting. May even make an entire subdivision of the genre in my cellar if I can find several blends. Sextant is on the list, thanks drennan!

And, although it's an aromatic, you might want to give Milan Sunset Rum a go. Gets massive reviews.

I drink Pusser's Navy Rum while I smoke my English blends. So I guess I'm infusing myself and the blends.

Samuel Gawith Brown Rope #4 adds rum to the blend. Nice blend with a substantial kick.

Ah, Pusser's, "The Single Malt of Rum." Here is a link (Pusser's Rum) to the history page of their Website, and which shows an image of one of two 200-year-old WOODEN pot stills used in the production of their rum.

Ah Pusser's, GREAT STUFF, but for my tastes I still prefer the Mt. Gay Extra Old. I visited the distillery a few times over the years, and that stuff just can't be beat.

+1 Papipeguy---Rum and English blends-- Great combo.

I stashed several bottles of Oronoco before it was discontinued, and love to sip it with my English blends.
