The final and oldest in their Trilogy series, aged 44 years from 1964 to 2008. Combining bourbon and Oloroso Sherry casks, gives a nose of citrus and tropical fruit, with a hint of warm smoke. The palate is wonderfully smooth leading to sweet honey, vanilla and warm oak. Dried fruit comes to the fire towards the end. The finish brings soft toasted oak and roasted almonds.
