Finlandia Vodka will return as the Official Vodka of the Kentucky Derby and Churchill Downs.
Finlandia’s Oaks Lily cocktail recipe, which debuted at the 132nd Kentucky Oaks in 2006, will once again be the signature vodka drink of the Kentucky Oaks, America’s premier race for three-year old fillies.
“Finlandia is thrilled to return as the Official Vodka of the Kentucky Derby and Churchill Downs, and as an important ingredient in the original Oaks Lily cocktail recipe, we’re honored to be a true testament of the tradition and craft of the Kentucky Derby.” said Finlandia Vodka Brand Manager Dallas Cheatham. “Made using superior ingredients including pure glacial water and the finest Suomi barley, Finlandia is a perfect complement to the sophistication, authenticity, and excellence of this occasion.”
