Wow.. I somehow missed the Brandy option. And the white rum that I enjoy is not what I think you would call "white rum". Rather, its name is "rhum agricole" and its a more sugar-cane based rum as opposed to molasses based. Its hard to explain, but its better.

My favorite liquor is rum, second is vodka. Whiskey is ok but I hate gin, and haven't tried the others.
I like rum and coke, and vodka with juice, preferably orange.
I haven't had a drink in several months, however.

I dont know what chacaca is but I dont think its that. According to Wikipedia its a rum. Its also called Rhum agricole in french.
Rhum Barbancourt is a rum producing company based in Haiti. The family business originated in the 1860s, with the product being made from sugar cane juice. Dupré Barbancourt discovered the procedure to make the rum on 15 December 1862, and began selling it for G1.50 (US$0.30) per gallon the next day.[1] In 1952, the company ramped up production, turning from a cottage industry into a major world producer of rum.
Barbancourt exclusively makes rhum agricole (agricultural rum), meaning the rum is made directly from sugar cane juice rather than the sugar cane by-product of molasses. Its products are highly regarded, having won many tastings and competitions. Its Estate Réserve is aged for 15 years.
Barbancourt's rums are marketed in 20 countries and Barbancourt is among Haiti's best known companies internationally.
The sugar cane used to produce the juice used to distill Barbancourt's rum is grown on plantations owned directly by the company. The rum is double distilled, using a process similar to that used to produce cognac. -Wikipedia

Wiki backs me up here but I realize the difference now. Your Rhum Agricole is made from sugarcane juice before extraction, while what I'm talking about is exclusively Brazilian and made from the by product. So I've learned of a bnew one now, and I reallyreally want to try both now.
