Havana Club 3yr
Flor De Cana Extra Dry 4yr
Brugal Especial Extra Dry 2yr

Those are the best I've found for original daiquiris. After a few hundred imbibes and variations, I've settled on the Morganthaler 10:3:2 version (2.5oz rum, 3/4oz lime, 1/2oz rich simple). With that ratio these rums really shine.

I use Cruzan White for anything with lots of ingredients and syrups, though. So, like Hayward's Mai-Kai Rum Barrel. Any of the premium whites get lost in there. I agree with The Bum in that Cruzan is significantly better than Bacardi.
