When I wanted to start tasting scotch, I went to the liquor store and bought every mini bottle they had of scotch (which was about 4 or 5 of them). I went through those, read some stuff on the scotch thread, and started buying bottles.

Good idea

If you can find it, a good introduction to scotch is McClelland's Single Malt. It runs around $21 a bottle and while it's not as good as the more expensive scotch, it will give you a good starting point. The stores in my area carries it in four different versions: Lowland, Islay, Highland and Speyside. Each different version has the characteristics of the region. Speyside, for example, is the less peaty and more "honeyed" flavor while Islay is the strong, smoky, peat flavored.

I would start a bottle of each and decide which one you like the most and then work your way up the price scale until you find what you enjoy the most.
