A distillery bottling is a bottling by the whisky distillery itself. We also call this 'original brand' bottling or OB. Until the 1970s, there were only 12 distillers in Scotland who released original brands. The whisky from the other distillers that did not disappear into the blends was bottled by independent bottlers.
Almost all distillers now have their own bottlings. This can be standard bottlings that always come in standard quality, or special bottlings in a limited edition. Sometimes even single-cask releases are involved.
But in addition to the OB's, there still appear independent bottlings (IB) from all distilleries.
In 2004, the Glengyle Distillery reopened after a renovation. In that year, the spirit for this Kilkerran single malt flowed from the new stills and was aged for 15 years, first in a first-fill oloroso cask and then for five years in a bourbon cask. 52.6%
Speyside Distillery Benromach bottled this single malt whisky especially for Whiskybase in early 2026. The whisky went into the cask, a first-fill bourbon barrel, in early 2008. After 18 years, it was released in 229 bottles at a surprisingly hefty 59.1%.
