Join Mike from Mike’s Fancy Cheese for a unique cheese-tasting tour of the Ulster Folk Museum.

We've paired cheeses from each county with our exhibit buildings, including Antrim’s Old Rectory, Ballydugan from Co. Down, Coradreenan farmhouse from Fermanagh, and Drumnahunshin from Armagh. Stroll through the museum, sample local cheeses, and learn about Ireland's rich cheese-making history. Learn about the new cheese makers keeping the traditions of locally made cheeses alive! 

Along the way, discover the history of our authentic buildings and the captivating stories behind them. Finish the tour in McCusker's licensed pub where you'll enjoy half a stout and a Mike's Fancy Cheese cheese plate.
