Classic American Style is as Classic as the Kentucky Derby.  The Mint Julep Cocktail served in the perfect Mint Julep Cup is the rage...if served with the right recipe and the right cup.  Prince of Scots Mint Julep Cups are Best in Class bringing heirloom quality style to your home for elegant entertaining events. 

Prince of Scots has been a Favorite of the Equestrian Community as the Official Retail Partner of the 2022 Breeder's Cup at Keenland in Lexington Kentucky. 

Some say the mint julep was a medicinal drink enjoyed in the morning hours while others claim the mint julep was the cocktail of choice of the privilege classes which originated in the 18th Century.

The History of the Mint Julep Cup!

Kentucky's US Senator Henry Clay's original recipe was introduced in Washington DC at the Round Robin Bar which soon became a bipartisan favorite.  The wonderful refreshing Mint Julep cocktail is very popular year round among Southern Social Elites of Charleston, Savannah, Lexington, and Louisville which is home to the Kentucky Derby.

While the phrase "Derby Day" may have little meaning to some, lovers of horse racing all over the country thrill at the mention of these words as the Kentucky Derby is the World's Most Important Horse Race.
