Made this again, but wanted it not as sweet.
Use St. James Martinique Acricole, Stades Barbados ambre, Neissen Martinique overproof white, Hamilton Jamaican Black. Also used Clement Creole Shrub in place of the dry curacao and Amaretto in place of the Orgate.
Result was a wonderful Agricole Mai Tai. If you like the taste of agricole rhum, try this option.

This is a fun one to swap out the various rums. I primarily used Bacoo 12 yr old with lesser amounts of Rum Fire, Myers's, S&C, and a bit of Bacardi Carta Blanca. Not true to the original but it was good to the last drop!

Tonight: 22.5 Dillon Blanc Agricole, 15ml Hamilton 86 Demerara, 15ml Bacardi 8yr, 7.5 Rum Fire. Added 15 ml water and served over cubes. Funky, grassy, complex.♥︎♡♥︎

Loved the cocktail, but it is definitely a 6 on sweetness. Found it a bit sweet so I would either adjust the orgate, Curacao, or lime. As a quick fix to lessen the sweetness, we added our usual tiki fix, a 151 float. It was wonderful and with enough float, who care?

used 10ML Rumfire and it overpowered the agricole ... watch it on the balance front ... it was also better but bye bye grassy notes and hello FUNK.
