Cool sort in trips to Iceland (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stoic

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cool sort' is the definition.
'Stoic' can be an answer for 'cool' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'sort' bit.

'in trips to iceland' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'STOIC' is hidden within 'trips to iceland'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for stoic that I've seen before include "Phlegmatic type" , "One who endures hardship uncomplainingly" , "Greek in school" , "Unemotional" , "Greek philosopher" .)
