Lately I've been quite a Balvenie Double cask fan, but I'm still quite fond of Glen Morangie, Port finished. It has a unique character all it's own, much different from the regular Glen Morangie.
For really peaty, I go with Lagavulan or even Laphraog.
And Oban is hard to beat. For cheap when the bar doesn't have a good one, I'll drink Black Label Johnny.
There's even a cheap one I've tried lately--can't remember the name, but it's three guys so I call it, "Manny, Moe, and Jack"--and they make a very good "smokey, peaty one."
