I shall recommend what I feel are two good ones for starters (so I shall avoid the peaty ones which aren't to everyone's taste). As with all such things, everyone will give a different opinion anyway.
Blended: Johnny Walker Black Label. Reasonable price, universally available, quite smooth and, quite honestly, almost hard to believe it is a blend.
Single Malts: The Macallan 10 Year Old. Smooth as a newborn's bot-bot and a very pleasing warmth afterwards. Not peaty. If money is no object, The Macallan 18 year old is even smoother but has a touch of peat about it.
