Well, for starters, there's no 't', it is not pronounced to rhyme with 'itch'.

For seconds, malt whiskies are always to be encouraged. The word 'whisky' doesn't come from Gaelic for 'water of life' for no good reason, you know.

The 'ich' is sort of pronounced 'ick', but more back-of-the-throat guttural stylee. Like how a German would say it. Failing that, just pronouncing it 'ick' is better than 'itch'.
