Forget
Pimms this year, everybody wil be drinking Mint Juleps at the races
as Kentucky's famous bourbon, Woodford Reserve, becomes the Official
Whiskey of The 2008 Epsom Derby Festival which takes place on Friday
6th and Saturday 7th June 2008. Take a tip from the Kentuckians whose
Derby experience wouldn't be the same without the world famous Mint
Julep and make sure you don't miss out on the complimentary Woodford
Reserve cocktails on offer at the Epsom Derby Festival.
The
partnership with Epsom Downs Racecourse, supports Woodford Reserve's
longstanding relationship with horseracing in the US, where it is the
official bourbon of the world famous Kentucky Derby, America's most
exciting and prestigious horse race, run since 1875.
Mark
Jordan from Woodford Reserve said "This is a very exciting
opportunity for Woodford Reserve, further strengthening our
relationship with horseracing in both the UK and the US. We are proud
to be associated with this iconic racing event, and look forward to
providing more race goers with the opportunity to learn about and
sample this extraordinary whiskey."
Nick
Blofeld, Managing Director of Epsom Downs Racecourse, said "We
are thrilled to welcome Woodford Reserve to Epsom this year, and
look forward to a long and successful relationship with this iconic
brand for years to come."
There
will also be a prize draw to win an all expenses paid trip for two
people to the Kentucky Derby in May 2009, courtesy of Woodford Reserve.
