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)
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%.
Specially bottled for the Netherlands, this single cask bottling of the American Westward Whiskey. Outside of the US and Australia, you won't easily come across Westward whisky, so extra special, this single malt whisky finished in a stout cask! (50%)
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%.
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
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%.)
Released of the 20th anniversary of Benromach. Distilled in the first year (1998) of the reopened Benromach distillery and now bottled 20 years later in 2018 to celebrate this milestone.
The Morven is the peated standard bottling of the young Wolfburn distillery. Smoke is clearly but not intrusive present, in the palette. There are also notes of caramel, malt, hay and nuts and, ultimately, some fruit. Worth trying!
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%)
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%)
Whiskymaker Sarah Burgess describes this Nostalgia edition from the English Lakes Distillery as a sensory journey through scents and flavours. The creamy, subtle single malt whisky is matured in Oloroso and bourbon casks and is bottled at 49%.
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%)
Maris Otter barley was developed in the 1960s for beer brewing. In the 1970s, it was even the most popular barley for brewing, but it disappeared from view for various reasons until Glenmorangie released a single malt whisky made from this barley in 2014!
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%)
Due to the maturation in sherry casks, this 12-year-old Yoichi single malt whisky has a complex aroma palette. The combination of salty, peaty components and balanced sherry flavors make this Japanese a very drinkable whisky. Bottled at 45%.
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.
The Miyagikyo distillery of the Japanese Nikka not only makes grain whisky, but also single malt. Such as this ageless bottling, for which a special, aromatic yeast was used during production. Not complex, nutty, fruity and sweet and well-balanced. (47%)

Family-owned distillery Glenfarclas is known for its sherried single malt whisky. One of their standard bottlings is the 17 year old malt. This is the 2020 edition, matured in oloroso sherry casks. A mature sherried dram for a reasonable price! (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)
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%
