Cooleeney Farm

Cooleeney farm is tucked into the Tipperary countryside, home to clover rich grass and Cooleeney Farm’s herd of Friesian cows. Breda began making her bloomy-rind cheese Cooleeney in 1986 as a way to make a better living from the family dairy farm, located outside Thurles in Co. Tipperary. Cheese seemed like a good way to increase the value of the milk from the family’s herd and Cooleeney has thrived with the help of several generations of the Maher family.
