Hi Brauer to answer your question just going on the posts here and elsewhere I'd have to say the ultra pure is miles in front . It has no synthetic shit in it and most users report consistently achieving azeotrope (95.6% ABV) . There have been numerous problems reported with the t500 , some of them like leaks ect have been on going for yrs and still not rectified , I dont know of one report of problems with the ultra pure still . Ok with that question answered I'd like to say 2 things , firstly there are quite a number of still manufacturer's on here and you will get an even better product for much cheaper from them . 2ndly You can get a light white rum out of an ultra pure type still but for a full flavored rum I think you would be looking at something like a pot still. It is my opinion for the beverages you mentioned it might be worth you looking at both stills (pot still is quite cheap to get) , very likely you could get them setup to fit on the same boiler
