LEXINGTON, Ky. (April 20, 2015) — Rival bartenders will compete Wednesday night in Lexington to make the city’s best Rose Julep, a mint julep using Four Roses Bourbon. The 3rd Annual Rose Julep Recipe Contest will showcase five bartenders from Lexington-area bars and restaurants. A panel of judges will score each julep on presentation, originality, aroma and taste.

In addition to the Judges’ Choice, attendees will have the opportunity to sample each julep and vote for the People’s Choice winner, and also meet and mingle with Four Roses Hall of Fame Master Distiller Jim Rutledge.

The event is from 6-8 p.m. at Grand Reserve
