Journey through the life of Robert Burns with an immersive Scotch whisky tasting at McCusker’s Pub in the Ulster Folk Museum.
During this guided whisky tasting, you’ll explore three single malt Scotch whiskies, each chosen for its deep connection to a defining chapter in Robert Burns’ life. Every 35ml dram is paired with a whisky-led canapé created by The Edible Flower, and accompanied by a carefully selected Burns poem to deepen your connection to the whisky and Burns.
