If you can't buy Difford's Falernum, you could bring up the proof of Taylor's to 18%. Allowing for contraction and staying at around 700ml total, using 96% alcohol, you'd need to remove 58ml of Falernum (and make something nice), add in 58ml of 96% and you'd have 693.7ml of 18%.

Or use (more) OP rum: e.g. Wray and Nephew OP at 63% would need 95ml or Plantation Original Dark at 73% would need 80ml.

IDK the taste profiles though of the new versions, you could do a smaller sample to experiment.
