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 2014, Glenfarclas Distillery bottled 536 bottles of their single malt whisky, matured for 14 years in 2 refill sherry casks, for a German whisky club. It is a typical, sherried Glenfarclas at a hefty cask strength of 59.9%, but very pleasant to drink.
This Springbank was released in 2016 in a limited edition. It matured for 16 years in 80% bourbon and 20% sherry casks before being bottled at cask strength (54.3%). What makes this single malt whisky really special is that it is made from local barley.
For this money perhaps the best blended whisky that can be found! If the cheaper blends quickly give an watery, flat impression, this Highland Queen is quite full of aroma and taste and can compete with some sherried single malts. A real bargain!
