Couple of ideas (I love being an enabler
)
Flaviar.com - is a club you join and they send you sample size bottles of different stuff every month.
Local Whiskey Bar - find a bar that specializes in whiskey and ask the bar tender as you narrow down your specific taste.
Both can be cheaper than buying an expensive bottle of something and discovering you hate it. I had a bottle of Lagavulin a long time cause I hated it. Lucky me I had friends visit who loved it.
