Each year the KENTUCKY DERBY Mint Julep Glass features a new design that incorporates the infamous Twin Spires, the recognized landmark symbol of Churchill Downs and the Derby. In 1953, the design began to list the names of past race winners.
The tradition dates to 64th running of the Derby 1938 when Churchill Downs used decorative water glasses in its dining rooms. When many of the water glasses "disappeared" because guests took them as souvenirs, Churchill Downs offered a take-home commemorative glass the following year, suitable for serving its signature drink, the mint julep. Immediately, mint julep sales soared.
We do not recommend washing collectible glassware in the dishwasher. All glasses sold without chips or cracks.
