Kaluah, Bailey's Irish Creme, some people like bourbon. In NC you can go to the liquour store and buy "mini" bottles of all different flavors and take them home and have a tasting party and see which flavors you like with the ganache. The tasting is usually lots of fun and I keep written notes of what I liked best and what I didn't.
Hope that helps

I use Jameson Irish Whiskey in ganache with a Guinness chocolate cake and Bailey's Irish Cream buttercream. I don't drink but I keep more liquor on hand than anyone I know!
Wow! Great suggestions, thanks, can't wait to try Chambord, I love that stuff. Oh, and Frangelico very tasty stuff.
The liquor is a nice addition, but make sure you use a good quality chocolate. I've made ganache now w/ a cheaper chocolate, a medium chocolate, and a good Belgian chococlate. I will never use anything again except the GOOD quality chocolate. It adds a dept and complexity of flavor to your cake or frosting, and is just FABULOUS!!! The cheaper and medium quality just tastes sweet in comparison to the complex Belgian chocolate ganache.
