A bottleneck edge is the highest weighted edge in a spanning tree.
A spanning tree is a minimum bottleneck spanning tree (or MBST) if the graph does not contain a spanning tree with a smaller bottleneck edge weight.
A MST is necessarily a MBST (provable by the cut property), but a MBST is not necessarily a MST.
