Blended Malt Whisky, 由已執笠的Imperial主導, 再加上小量1st fill sherry的"Aberlour附近的蒸溜廠"。

Magic Cask概念係有小小反璞歸真, 有別於大部份其他CB作品Blend好多唔同的廠,
雖然係Blended Whisky, , 但呢支就只係用core whisky (Imperial) blend多一個桶就完事, 而CB就稱呢個桶做Magic Cask,
而呢個Speyside Magic cask, 先係1st fill Bourbon barrels 陳年一年, 再轉到 1st fill Oloroso sherry butt 做多三年Finish

詳情如下:
92% Imperial (First Fill Bourbon)
8% Single malt made near Aberlour (First Fill Oloroso Sherry)
----------
Tasting note from Master of Malt for reference:

Nose:
Ripe plum, a touch of chocolatey malt and something subtle herbaceous wafts.

Palate:
Fragrant vanilla, peaches and cream, soft oak, cinnamon.

Finish:
Citrus oils and cocoa last on the finish.
