For rum, funky high ester can be Smith & Cross, Rum Fire, Wray & Nephew, or similar. A little needs to go a long way.
After attending Backbar's Bamboo Cocktail-themed menu (Backbar is a speakeasy in Somerville, MA), I was inspired to create my own to add to the Improved Bamboo, Bamboo Crusta, and Bamboo Flip that I had crafted over the years. My mind went tropical and I originally wanted to riff on the Zombie, but I felt that the Bamboo core would be lost there. I soon decided on riffing on the classic Chief Lapu Lapu especially since I had a twist-free orange waiting to be utilized for juice. In addition, I was lured in with the name play of dubbing it the Chief Bamboo Bamboo. Instead of the more common call for Fino Sherry, I opted for Death & Co.'s Amontillado-containing Bamboo recipe as the core.
