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.

Get a new Ardbeg Ten single malt whisky and put it next to this bottling from 2010. They look the same (only the 2010 bottle is bigger). But open them and taste: you will definitely taste the differences! (bottled at 46% in a 1000 ml bottle)

The second batch of this new 'classic' Ardbeg series. The single malt whisky comes out as Small Batch Release. It matured for 19 years in bourbon and sherry casks. Due to its age, the typical Ardbeg smoke is a bit milder. A subtle, elegant dram. (46.2%)
