I used Hampden's gold for the golden rum so I scaled back the rum by about 10%. That made for a surprisingly balanced cocktail. The Italicus doesn't so much take over as it lifts the floral components of the rum and bitters. It's absolutely still recognisable as a Daiquiri riff, albeit a floral one. It's slightly sweet so next time I'll reduce the sugar by a quarter.

The italicus gives a nice floral lift to the rum

A very good surprise. First time i made it with Clement Bleu canne rhum and Havana 3 years and it was etxraodinary. With a Pere Labat 59%, it's even better.

Made this with madeiran Branca rum agricola (aguardente de cana), Havana club 3yo, and peychauds bitters which gave it a nice slight pink hue. Really enjoyed it, I do like a bit of agicultural rum and I love italicus.
