Bacardi 8 year is a close second. I read on a now-defunct rum blog about a guy who got to visit Steve Remsberg's collection that Lownde's Jamaican was Don's preferred pour for the zombie back in the day. They found that equal parts Smith & Cross and Meyer's came close to how it tasted, so I use that now. I'm all about Hamilton 151 for my overproof demerara now. It's 5 bucks cheaper than Lemon Hart, and I'm getting tired of LH's unreliability and fiddling with the formula.
