OK, here is a quick list of 4 that cover the 4 main types, any and all are really good. I would sugeest that you find a bar or two or three that has these and try some shots before you buy a bottle.
1. Sweet - Balvenie 12yo DoubleWood or Glenfiddich 12
2. Sherry - Dalmore 12yo or Macallan 12
3. Peaty - Talisker 10yo or Ardbeg 10yo
4. Smokey - Glenfiddich - Caoran Reserve 12yo
Smokey is really hard to find in the price range you want so you can skip that for now. This should get you started.
