Never use "Blantons" and "Bulleit" in the same sentence. Never. 

Blantons and Bulleit are two bourbons I like.

Lowlands and Speysides don't have heavy peat, that tends to be the islay and Islands. The likes of Laphroaig and Lagavulin have the ammonia effect. Lagavulin was sold as a medicine in the US during prohibition, it was classed as medication. 

To avoid the peat go for a light coloured young lowland. 

Also drink at room temperature with only a few drops of water. Ice kills it

We did a single malt tasting on our last cruise. Several of the options had no peat, including one big award-winner from Japan. They were smooth and pleasant and bored me to tears. Give me lots of smoke and earth in my whisky/whiskey or I might as well just have a G&T.

Bulleit makes a decent rye but their bourbon doesn't play in the same league as Blanton's.
