Id say clontarf as well.

Just the plain old Clontarf or the Reserve.

Great taste.

However, tullamore do is good, and makes a good Irish Coffee.:aok

Bourbon is perfect to clean up the bugs you have on your wind shield.

I'm afraid it would ruin the rubber that seals the windshield, better to use it to kill the bugs outright :D

for scotch I always liked walker black label for a blended and macallan 12 year old for a single malt.

I always drank those two neat without ice.

I got into this a little bit when I was searching for the perfect Irish coffee.

My liquor cabinet now has a bottle of Bushmills, but to my taste the easiest and best tasting Irish coffee is simply a mug of decaf Melitta with a pony of Irish Mist.

Bushmills.

I appreciate Jack Daniels more lately though.  In a similar condition of over ice cubes with a splash of water, I prefer JD.   Bushmills is the best of the list.

Nils, you're going to try them all anyway... why ask for opinions?

Are you going to let someone else decide if it tastes good to you?  :)

Opinions from other than the "professionals" that tests this stuff is always good.  If one or more of them didnt get any thumbs up i could save the money. Afterall im going thru a large selection of whiskys so the more i can skip the better... There is a limit to how much i can consume when i only get to do so once or twice a month anyway :D
