Thanks for all the replies.
I ate out with mi familia and we discussed this rather thoroughly. I printed out a list of rum brand recommendations, and dad got a chuckle out of the fact that I turn to the Internet for pretty much everything.
I ultimately went with his recommendation: A bottle of Seagram's VO whiskey.
There was a wide array of alcohol, half unopened, when I arrived, and thus mine will be consumed at a later time. Overall, it was a good time. I got a fire going despite the rain, and a good time was had by all.
