Old Parr 12 Year

Medium richness, approachable, smells kinda nutty and Woody. Initial flavor is peanuts or almonds, switching to a deep oak and riding that into the finish. Finish is a good length, burn is there but not too bad.

My brother-in-law from Colombia introduced me to this scotch. It's very drinkable. A little peat and smoke, but just kind of bland. Old Parr just isn't up to the Parr of other scotches you can get for around $22-$30. For a tad bit more I'd go for the Dewars 12 in a blended Scotch. Nothing remarkable about it, but you can tell it's aged. Better than the Highland's Mist I buy for my wife's Rob Roys.
