Woodford Reserve has unveiled this year’s tribute to “the greatest two minutes in sports” with their 2019 Kentucky Derby bottle.
For the second year in a row, the Derby bottle will be graced with the artwork of Brown-Forman employee Keith Anderson. Anderson, who works in the Bourbon Street Cafe at the company’s headquarters, used to joke to higher-ups that one day it would be his art on their bottles.
Last year, they decided to take a look at a few of his paintings, and were immediately sold on Anderson’s vividly colorful racing scenes. This year’s bottle follows the same theme.
