Liqueur, Creme and Fortified Wines Thread

Guys,

I thought it would be fun to have a thread where people list "must try" Liqueur and Creme to expand on the the big 4 discussed here already (beer, whiskey/whisky, rum and wine). I ran accross so much stuff while restocking my bar, I had no idea, stuff like Navan and American Honey. I will get this started:

Amarula (being an ex-pat South African, I need to chuck this out there). If you like Baileys, you will love this. Fruitier and I think smoother then other Cremes, just a great drink to calm any cigar on a cool evening.

E & J Cask and Barrel. Again, if you like Baileys, this is similar but made from brandy not irish whiskey, good stuff. I have both this and Baileys at home and think this makes a better mudslide by miles.

Fonseco Bin 27. This is a ripe vintage port. Dirt cheap, huge fruit flavors, I love this stuff. Available everywhere, easy to drink, no fancy but always does the trick.
