Insider knowledge: Glenrothes 10 Year Old 1999 Port Wood Finish - The Coopers Choice (The Vintage Malt Whisky Co.) whisky is named whisky by virtue of the fact it's from Scotland. If distilled in America the spelling would be Glenrothes 10 Year Old 1999 Port Wood Finish - The Coopers Choice (The Vintage Malt Whisky Co.) whiskey, as opposed to whisky.
