Pronouncing Scotch names, like Bruichladdich

Scotch whisky buffs will no doubt be able to pronounce the names of the many varieties of Scotch.

Me, I’d struggle. Now though, Hollywood film actor, and Scotsman, Brian Cox pronounces over forty names of Scotch. I’ve listened, enrapt, to Brian Cox pronounce the names. Me, I still struggle with names like Bruichladdich or Auchentoshan, and content myself that I can pronounce Jura, Oban, Springbank, Bowmore and Highland Park.
