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.
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%)

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%
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%)
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%.

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%

Green Spot is an Irish single pot-still whiskey. it is distilled from malted and unmalted barley. The Green Spot whiskey is also triple-distilled, according to Irish tradition. It is therefore a light, very pleasantly drinkable dram!
A mild, fruity and 'modest' Speysider, this Cragganmore 12. No spectacle in your glass, but a balanced complexity. Fruit and heather, a hint of grains, honey, toffee and the spiciness of oak. A dram to give a chance!
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)
Morven is Wolfburn's lightly peated standard bottling. Smoke is therefore present on the palette, along with notes of caramel, malt, hay, and nuts, and finally, fruit. This 350ml bottle is the perfect way to try this modestly smoky single malt! (46%)
In 2011, Glenfarclas celebrated its 175th anniversary with this bottling: a mix of strongly sherried single malt whiskies from the 1950s and 1960s (the oldest cask from 1952!) and fruitier malts from subsequent years. A festive bottling for sure! (43%)
