Cutty sark (for the scotch drinkers)

[Buckmulligan]

Alright-

I'm only 20, and my dad and I share a love for bourbon whiskey and normally keep a fifth of Evan Williams seven year around the house. Given that I'm twenty, and don't really try to use my ID to buy liquor, and given the fact that my dad absolutely refuses to get into scotch, and given the fact that I like scotch, I had to take unconventional action.

(Can't buy scotch alone + dad won't try scotch (thinks it's too pricey and didn't like it last time he had it twenty years ago) + I like scotch = unconventional action to attain scotch)

So here's the move: the Evan willaims is killed and there is no way I'm going to try to bust out the Johny walker black label because it is obviously too pricey. I snag a bottle of Cutty Sark (over the johny walker red label, yes) and toss it in the cart and alert my dad that it's reasonably priced and he's going to like it. He gives in, so now we have a bottle of Cutty Sark scotts whiskey.

So I have a drink this afternoon when I get home and find it to be a decent drink. It's like 18$ for the fifth and very mild but really not all that bad.

My first question, for you scotch drinkers, is whether or not my judgment is terrible here in considering cutty sark drinkable neat; my second question is whether or not my dad will like it and how I should serve it to him the first time.
