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.
It is still available here and there, the second official Kilchoman bottling, but not for such a favourable price as it is in our shops! This 3-year-old Autumn Release single malt whisky matured in bourbon casks and is finished in Oloroso casks. (46%)
This Macallan single malt whisky was bottled in 2017 after having matured for 12 years in carefully selected casks of both European and American oak. The Speysider is bottled at a strength of 40% ABV. (unfortunately, the original box is missing)
A 2010 bottling of the youngest single malt whisky in the Campbeltown region. The first Kilkerran whisky bottling was released in 2007. The bottling here was released in the Work in Progress series. The whisky matured in bourbon casks. (bottled at 46%)
Under the brand The Hearach, the young, artisanal The Isle of Harris Distillery on the Scottish island of the same name distils single malt whisky. The whisky aged in various bourbon and sherry casks. (46%)
This Glendronach single malt whisky matured for 21 years in a large Oloroso sherry cask. Given the high score of this whisky on the Whiskybase, it was an excellent cask (what we could expect from Glendronach). Bottled at a cask strength of 56.4%.
Why Glendronach is known for their sherried whisky also becomes clear with this bottle, released in 2013 in Batch 3 of a series of Cask Strength bottlings. The single malt whisky matured in Oloroso and PX casks and is bottled at 54.9%.
All of Ardbeg's Supernova bottlings, released since 2008, scored high to very high. That also applies to this Committee Release from 2015. Full, creamy, complex, and of course (Ardbeg!) ashy and smoky. An exclusive single malt whisky. (bottled at 53.3%)
This is a Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, traditionally distilled according to an original recipe, carbon-filtered for a smooth, mild character and bottled at 99 proof (49.5%). Slightly different from the well-known standard bourbons. Curious?
With 12 years of aging in bourbon barrels, including finishing on oloroso-sherry casks and a strength of 40%, you could call this Isle of Jura single malt whisky for this price a good entry-level dram. Easy to drink, more modest than in your face.

This is the 5th release in the Edition Series from the famous Speyside distillery Macallan. The single malt whisky matured in different casks, which gave it a purple colour. It was bottled at a strength of 48.5%%
Unique: this bottle comes packaged in a guitar case! It comes from a bottling in celebration of the Arran Malt & Music Festival 2018, a blend of Arran single malt whiskies matured in three types of cask: French, Spanish and American oak. (57.6%)
A special The Family Casks bottling from Speyside distillery Glenfarclas. In 1987 the single malt whisky went into the cask, a refill sherry cask, and more than 30 years later in 2018 it was bottled at a cask strength of 46% in an edition of 588 bottles.
From the Richly Matured series, this 15-year-old Knockando aged in bourbon and sherry casks. A fairly complex malt with, besides the floral and fruity Speyside notes, sherry influences such as cinnamon, chocolate and apple sauce. Bottled at 43%.
The age of the Penderyn Celt single malt whisky from Wales is unknown, but it is young. We do know that it finished on Islay quarter casks (Laphroaig?). That gives a touch of smoke to the taste and finish of this otherwise light dram.
This Atlantic Sea Salt is the first release in Bowmore's series dedicated to the famous vaults below sea level beneath the Islay distillery where their single malt whisky is maturing. The medium-peated malt aged in bourbon casks. (51.5% cask strength)
The Akashi Meïsei Deluxe is a Japanese blended whisky from the Eigashima Shuzo Distillery. It is a mix of 50% malt and 50% grain whisky that first matured in ex-bourbon casks and finished in sherry casks. A mild whisky with a subtle sherry influence. 50%

You can find distillery bottlings of Cardhu single malt whisky in most liquor stores, but bottlings like this... This is a real collector's item: the Speysider was vatted in 1973. After 27 years of maturation, it was bottled at a cask strength of 60.2%.
The Wee Beastie bottling is the latest standard edition from Ardbeg. This single malt whisky matured for 5 years in bourbon and sherry casks. Despite being young, the Wee Beastie has complex aromas and notes, a full mouthfeel and a long finish. (47.4%)
This Balblair single malt whisky aged for 15 years in bourbon and sherry casks. In its role as one of the core bottlings of the Highland distillery, it is nicely balanced between light and exotic fruit, with notes of chocolate, raisins and toffee. (46%)
A new look for this 12 year old Loch Lomond single malt whisky. It matured in 3 different types of bourbon cask (1st fill, refill and re-charred). That resulted in a dram with notes of peach, pear, sweet vanilla and a hint of peat smoke. 46%
Has nothing to do with coffee, Coffey is the type of still with which this Japanese blended grain whisky is made. That resulted in a fruity, light, pleasantly drinkable dram, a whisky for those long summer evenings. Bottled at 45%.
Also in terms of price this 10 year old Glenfarclas is a fine 'entry-level' single malt. Light, fruity 'Speyside' tones combined with malt, a hint of smoke and the sweetness of sherry make this whisky easy to drink. At 40%.
