Quick answer:
a few serious classics:
Mai Tai
Scorpion
Fog Cutter
Pupule (or Nui Nui)
Zombie
jet (test) Pilot
Rum Barrel
Navy Grog
Planter's Punch
Missionary's Downfall
Aku Aku Lapu

** Bowl

then it couldn't hurt too much to add:
Daiquiri
El Diablo
Painkiller
Jungle Bird
Singapore Sling
Alexander
Dr Funk
Suffering Bastard
Honi Honi
Halekulani
Milk Punch
Coquito
PiƱa Collada
La Florida drinks(daiquiris, cocktail, El Presidente)
Ti Punch
Rum Old Fashioned
Bumboo
Mojito
El Draque

Not all "Tiki", and not all Rum, but most could be either considered "exotic", or had a place at various exotic bars historically.

Matter of personal preference how many originals vs classics you want as well.

Good luck on your new venture! Sounds awesome, Congrats!
