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.
This is the first edition of the new Malting Season series from Speyside Distillery BenRiach. This single malt whisky is produced in the traditional way, also using the historic malt floor. It matured in bourbon and virgin oak casks. Bottled at 47,8%.

We don't know exactly when this Glenfarclas was bottled, but we do know that it matured for 21 years, probably in refill sherry casks, and was bottled in 20cl bottles, making it very affordable for a single malt of that age. (43%)
Although one of Japan's oldest distilleries, Saburomaru isn't well known outside Japan. But after its 2016 renovation and bottlings like this, that might change. The Emperor is a single malt whisky, distilled from peated Scottish malt. (48% ABV)
This unique gift package includes 3 samples (5 cl) containing three different blended Scotch whiskies, with The Lakes single malt whisky in the base. The whiskies are The One Fine Blend, The One Manzanilla Cask Finished, and The One Colheita Cask Finished
This Auchroisk is a Diageo Special Release from 2010 with a classic label. It is a Special Release indeed, because 20-year-old cask strength bottlings of the Speyside single malt whisky are not very common. Complex, sweet and very aromatic. (58.1%)
The Ross & Squibb Distillery in Indiana, which is little known outside America, has more than 175 years of experience in distilling bourbon and rye whiskey. That is certainly reflected in this Rossville Union Master Crafted straight rye whisky. (47%)
The young Indian distillery Piccadily, where among others a Scottish master distiller works, was awarded the title Best Indian Single Malt for one of its earlier bottlings. That makes you curious about this bourbon-matured Drú at cask strength (57.2%)
We didn't have many bottlings of the traditionally distilled Templeton Rye Whiskey in the shop so far. And we probably even didn't have a rye whiskey finished in stout beer casks here before. This is one of those bottlings that makes one curious! (46%)
We only have one bottle left of this special Glen Scotia edition, so...! The single malt whisky is 18 years old. It matured most of it in bourbon casks, the twelve months in oloroso casks. As the label says: A Classic Campbeltown Malt! Bottled at 46%.
Of the two Orkney distilleries, Scapa is the lesser known. Still, it doesn't hurt to take a look at their single malt whisky. Take this 16-year-old bottling, for example, with its waxy mouthfeel and complex nose. Bottled at 40% ABV.
Islay Distillery Laphroaig has hit the bull's eye with its 10-year-old cask strength bottlings. The editions of this single malt whisky have always scored good to very good over the years. The bottling here is from 2010 and scored almost 89 points. (58,3%
A new single malt whisky from Belgian distillery De Molenberg. This bottling is finished in oloroso sherry casks, which in addition to its own malty notes also gives notes of red fruit, raisins, gingerbread and chocolate. A mild, pleasantly drinkable dram
For those who want to get acquainted with a peated Irish single malt whiskey. This Connemara Original drinks away easily and is modestly smoky. An 'entry-level whiskey', also considering the price.
The Ardbeg Ten is one of those classic drams that really shouldn't be missing from your cabinet. This is a bottle from a 2013 bottling. A great opportunity to compare this older edition of the standard single malt whisky with the Ardbeg Ten of today. 46%
Due to the climatic conditions in the warehouse of the Indian Amrut Distillery, their whiskies mature early. This also applies to this 5-year-old Master Distiller's Reserve single cask bottling. Extraordinary is that it matured in a stout cask! (50%)
At the end of 2014, the Glenmorangie Distillery bottled in the Legends series this The Duthac, named after a Scottish pilgrimage. The single malt whisky matured partly in Pedro Ximénez and virgin oak casks. A lightly sherried dram. (46%)
Craigellachie is specialising in producing single malt whisky finished in exceptional casks. This 13-year-old Old Bas-Armagnac Cask is a prime example of this. The Speysider first matured in bourbon and sherry casks before being finished. (46%)
This Tamdhu is a limited edition distillery bottling, not a standard edition. The Speyside single malt whisky matured in an oloroso sherry cask for 18 years, resulting in a complex, layered dram, with distinct sherry notes of course. Bottled at 46.8%.
The quirky distillery Glenmorangie releases with this X a single malt whisky that is specially made for mixing. The X is characterized by strong, sweet notes from the bourbon and new oak casks on which it matured. For in your cocktails. Bottled at 40%.
This bottling of the High West Distillery, America's Distillery of the Year in 2016, contains a blend of straight rye whiskeys. Earlier batches of this Double Rye! were well appreciated. For straight rye at least 51% of the used grains must be rye. (46%.)
The Knob Creek whiskeys are bottled at 100˚ proof (= 50% ABV). This also applies to this Knob Creek Rye whiskey. Yet the alcohol does not force itself. This is a mild rye whiskey with its own character. Also great for cocktails!
In 2021, this 15-year-old single malt whisky was released in the Isle of Arran Distillery's Rare Batch series. What makes this edition special is that the malt matured entirely in French oak casks that previously held high-quality Médoc wine. 52.8%
