The problem isn't that they called their product Glenora, but Glen Breton, a totally made up place name. And obviously, a place name made up to cash in on the fact that many, if not most, premium brands of Scotch whisky are "Glen" whiskies. If you were to ask 100 Scotch drinkers where Glen Breton whiskey was distilled there is a very high probability that 100 of them would say Scotland. That's why the courts found in favour of the Scotch Whisky Association.
