I can’t stand peat either. Gives me heartburn like a mofo….I see so many bottles of scotch at duty free shops and I never buy any because I don't know the first thing about it. I do not care for a peaty flavor though.
Try Scotch whisky from the Lowlands or Speyside. No peat (generally) on those. Dalwhinnie, Glenkinchie, or Glenlivet are good examples.
Blended Scotch also generally has little to no Peat. Ex. - Johnnie Walker Black
