Using a full-flavored funky rum is key to this cocktail as it stands up to and compliments the Herbsaint (or absinthe). If Herbsaint is not to your taste, the Trader also made an alternate version called Dr. Funk's Son, in which the Herbsaint is dropped and a ½ oz of the black pot still rum is substituted with ½ oz black blended overproof rum ❻.
