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.
Here's another special edition from Highland-distillery Deanston. They previously released 15-year-old bottlings that were finished in Marsala or Sauternes casks; here the single malt whisky was finished in Tequila casks. And that is quite special! 52.5%
The artisanal The Clydeside Distillery opened its doors on Stobcross Road in Glasgow in January 2018. And this is their Stobcross single malt whisky. A young whisky of course, this Lowlander, matured in bourbon and sherry casks. (46%)
Seventeen years ago this Miyagikyo single malt whisky was released. It is a 12 year old rich, full and complex Japanese malt that develops in the glass. A bottle that you rarely will encounter anymore. Bottled at 45%.
A blended whisky from the Japanese distillery Eigashima Shuzo. Something different than the well-known Scottish blends. And at a reasonable price, especially for a Japanese whisky.
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.
Ardmore 12 year old and finished on port casks. Giving this whisky an additional sweetness.
Naarangi is Hindi for orange. The Indian Amrut is not afraid to experiment: first they put orange peels in sherry casks, and then let 3-year-old single malt mature for 3 years in the emptied again casks. Curious? Give it a try! (50%)
This Velvet Cap edition from Ireland's Blackwater Distillery is a mildly peated single malt whisky finished in sherry casks. With its 5 years of maturation it is a young whisky, but surprisingly full and balanced, the peat smoke is subtly present. 40%

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%)
This is an extra striking edition in the already special Boutique Barrels bottling series of the Jura distillery: while Jura's single malt whisky is unpeated as standard, the bourbon-aged whisky in this bottling is peated (for the insider: 30ppm)! (55%)
The fact that single malt whisky often matures in sherry casks is nothing special, but maturation in fino sherry casks is. Fino is a dry sherry that matured under a layer of yeast, the 'flor'. That gives an extra taste experience to this Kilchoman. (50%)
A blended Irish whiskey, nice for a change from the Scotch blends! This Powers Gold Label from the Irish Midleton distillery has, of course, been distilled three times, as befits an Irish whiskey, and bottled at 43.2%. For a very reasonable price.
The Indian distillery Amrut proves with its Peated Indian bottlings that they can also produce nicely peated single malt whiskies. And that also applies to the Cask strength version. At 62.8%, it is strong in alcohol.
Darach Poitín is Celtic-Irish for oak-aged new make spirit. And that's what this bottling is. A pot-still spirit, triple distilled in the classic Irish way and bourbon-aged, it gives you a good idea of Macaloney's house style. Makes one curious! (46%)
A true classic in the world of sherried single malt whisky, the Aberlour A'bunadh. This is the 69th batch already. Matured in oloroso-sherry casks and at a cask strength of 61.2%, this is a nice, warm whisky for the cold winter days.
Sazerac is a brand of rye whiskey from the Buffalo Trace Distillery (and it is the name of the family business that owns that distillery). This rye-based whisky is not complex, has its own character and body, and is pleasantly drinkable. (45%)
Lagavulin 16 is an example of how a long distillation process and long maturing contribute to a high-quality single malt. With this bottling, Lagavulin sets a standard: a perfect balance between peat smoke, maritime tones and sherry aromas. At 43%.
A peated Irish single malt whiskey that has been distilled 2 instead of 3 times, and then matured in bourbon and sherry casks. You don't often come across drams like this Connemara,! And then it is also a nice drinkable, well-balanced whisky!
Amrut Distillery states in the subtitle on the label that this is a single malt whisky, but it is called Rye. And that is what it is: an Indian whisky in American style distilled from European rye! It is matured in new American oak casks. Curious? (50%)
The Neidhal is a peated version of the Indian Amrut single malt whisky. This is the first batch in the Single Malts of India series, where Amrut releases whiskies that have the character of an Indian region. Here, those are salty maritime and peaty notes.
Not only does Glenallachie distill the spirit for the Meikle Tòir bottlings from peated barley malt, the fermentation time is also almost three times as long as usual. This unique 5-year-old bottling also matured partly in virgin Chinquapin oak! (48%)
Islay distillery Laphroaig has hit the mark with its 10-year-old cask strength bottlings. The editions of this single malt whisky have consistently scored very well over the years. This bottling (2015) now has more than 88 points. Bottled at 56.3%.
