Reminds of ordering a pint of An Teallach beer a few years back. I asked the
barmaid for a pint of "that one" - I knew that there was something
challenging about the pronunciation. I now know that it is An Challach -
easier after a few pints, I daresay.

The nice lady at the tea shop where I actually ordered one was very kind.
She didn’t flinch when I ordered an Erin-Brew. <g>
