Mint Julep in CT?

Question

Does anywhere know of any bars or restaurants in Connecticut that make a good mint julep? There are mojitos everywhere, but no one around here seems to know how to make a mint julep. It's a travesty! Someone help me out and please, no recipes, that's not what I'm looking for.
