I'm very particular myself as well. I need a smooth, clean taste, and I prefer a finish that doesn't linger too long. I've had my fair share of dirty cactus juice.
For margaritas, I usually go with a 100% agave silver (o plata) tequila, which I keep in the freezer so it pours with a nice, syrupy texture that doesn't splash as much, and also works well for the occasional shooter.

As for me when I go out I usually just drink beer with a few shots here and there (fireman is my favorite kind of shot).
I wouldn't drink white rum for pleasure, I'm much more comfortalbe with just drinking vodka.
I've never had a fireman (that may have came out wrong). When I looked up the drink recipe, I found one with overproof rum, Goldshlager, and triple sec. Is this the right one? There were several variations, so I wasn't sure.
