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.

A fantastic Islay classic, that's what you can call this Laphroaig! Distilled in the early 80s and then matured for 32 years in 'old-fashioned' sherry casks. The perfectly sherried single malt whisky has, due to its age, a milder smokiness. (46.6%)
