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.
The Old Pulteney 12 single malt whisky is pleasantly light and fruity and easy to drink. Because it matured on both bourbon and sherry casks, perhaps a nice entry whisky. And certainly a whisky to share with guests. Also a nice dram in terms of price!
The Arran Distillery is also doing 'finishing' these days. This bottling, for example, is finished in port casks and that gives the single malt whisky notes of hazelnut, strawberry jam and mandarin oranges. All well in balance with the Arran profile. 50%
This is a dram that was talked about a lot at the release. Because of the marketing of this bottle (a tribute to an experiment in which 4 Ardbeg samples went into space). But also because of the quality of the single malt whisky itself. A true Ardbeg!
After the Monkey Shoulder blended malt whisky Smooth and Rich, William Grant & Sons now comes with the Monkey Shoulder Smokey Monkey. As the name implies, this blend of Scottish malts has smoky notes, besides notes like peach, apple, chocolate, and coffee
You don't come across a peated Canadian whisky very often, so pay attention to this Macaloney's The Peat Project! This whisky is distilled from local barley, the malt of which was peat-dried at the distillery. The whisky matured in a bourbon cask. (46%)
This Pisces is the first edition in the zodiac series of single malt whisky from Japan's Niigata Kameda Distillery. This young malt matured in a unique combination of casks: bourbon, palo cortado, and sherry brandy casks, and is bottled at 50.0% ABV.
Since 2017, the Raasay Distillery has been active on the island of the same name. After some 180 previous releases, this is The Draam, half distilled from peated and half from unpeated barley malt and matured in rye, chinquapin, and red wine casks. 46.4%
The Duvel Moortgat Brewery is known for its beer, but sometimes, it also distils whisky. This Celebration Bottle was released in 2023. The 10-year-old, bourbon and sherry-aged, marsala-finished single malt whisky was bottled in this nice bottle at 40%.
In 2022, the first bottling of Lagg single malt whisky was released. Unlike the older Arran Distillery, the young distillery on Arran makes a peated malt, according to an old Arran recipe. This 3-year-old Kilmory Edition matured in bourbon casks. (46%)
Speyside Distillery Tormore is temporarily shut down in 2022. Production will resume in 2026. But you don't have to go without! Cadenhead is releasing a 14-year-old Tormore single malt. The whisky matured in bourbon and Oloroso casks. (46% ABV)
Bere barley is a 're-grown' primaeval barley, barley as it was at the time of the invention of single malt whisky. Barley with which Bruichladdich has made bottlings before. Complex, earthy, malty, dough, green fruit, oily ... a character all of its own.
This Glenmorangie Companta of unknown age matured in exclusive French wine casks and was bottled in 2014. A fine example of the experimental side of the distillery, which was one of the first to finish whisky in other casks than it matured in. (46%)
This Talisker was released in 2005 in a 1-litre bottle after 14 years of double-maturation in sherry casks. This peated single malt from the Isle of Skye is a pleasantly drinkable whisky with a beautifully balanced (Amoroso) sherry influence. (45.8% ABV)
Bruichladdich Valinch single malt whiskies are only available at the distillery itself. The buyer bottles his bottle directly from the cask. This 24-year-old Laddie Crew 19 single malt whisky was finished in a Sauternes cask and bottled in 2016. (48.5%)
At the end of 2021, this single-cask Japanese blended whisky was bottled in an edition of 186 bottles. A blend of Ichiro's malt and grain whisky. The whisky is finished on a bourbon cask, and it is bottled at a solid 60.0% ABV.
In 2011, Glenfarclas celebrated its 175th anniversary with this bottling: a mix of strongly sherried single malt whiskies from the 1950s and 1960s (the oldest cask from 1952!) and fruitier malts from subsequent years. A festive bottling for sure! (43%)
A limited edition bottling, that's the 2021 edition of this Bunnahabhain single malt whisky. It is 12 years old and matured in both sherry and bourbon casks. This resulted in a complex palette of dried fruit, vanilla, roasted nuts and maritime notes.
The peated standard bottling of the Tobermory distillery. If you like peated and want something different than the well-known Islay whiskies, try this Ledaig 10 that matured in bourbon cask. You will smell a farmyard. And smoke of course! At 46.3%.
This is a core bottling from Highland distillery Old Pulteney. This 18-year-old single malt whisky is clearly finished in quality sherry casks. Full of flavor, smooth and mild, with the sherry notes harmoniously in balance with the Old Pulteney character.
The Original Collection from bottler Cadenhead is known for its excellent value. This is also evident in this Glenallachie bottling. The Speyside single malt whisky matured for 17 years in a refill bourbon cask. (Bottled at 46%)
Glencadam was founded two centuries ago in the East Highlands, but until the early 2000s, there wasn't a single distillery bottling. Now, however, there are several, such as this 15-year-old, bourbon-matured single malt. Now with a new label. (46% ABV)
Speyside distillery Knockdhu (founded in 1893) releases single malt whisky under the name AnCnoc. This 16-year-old malt, matured in ex-bourbon casks, was released as part of the Rich & Sweet series. Indeed, a rich dram with sweet flavours. (46% ABV)
This 1770 Glasgow bottling is called The Original, and it's batch two in the Fresh & Fruity-Cask Strength series. The Glasgow single malt whisky matured in first-fill bourbon casks and finished in virgin oak casks. This is reflected in the flavour. (59.5%
Almost forgotten again: the Longrow 100 Proof bottlings from Campbeltown distillery Springbank. But here's one to refresh your memory. This 10-year-old peated single malt is, of course, bottled at 100 proof, so at 57.1% ABV.
