Most, if not all the Trader Vic's make their Mai Tais with what is called "Enterprise Mix." They make it special for Vic's restaurants and bars and it not sold anywhere. The TV's in my area (LA) have started offering what they call "Scratch Mai Tai" where they use all the usual ingredients; curcao, rock syrup, etc and do not use the Enterprise Mix--this in addition to the usual Mai Tai that uses the enterprise mix. This could be the secret ingredient that you're tasting...or not tasting.
