I've a 10 year Aberlour and a 12 year Singleton on the go and very nice they are too.
The confusion between American English and English is one that really annoys me. Not just spelling words differently but the use of American words instead of English words. For example, so many people are using the word awesome these days instead of just saying something is really good, great or fantastic. I keep seeing colour spelt as color and transportation when transport is the correct way.

It doesn't help when many of the spell checkers only provide the American English version of the language.
