From Great Brewing Comes Great Spirits

At Copperworks Distilling, we started with what we know: brewing beer. We brewed a Pale Ale, and a Scotch Ale, and then then we distilled the alcohol out of them to turn them into Whiskey, Vodka, and Gin.

Scottish Stills on the Seattle Waterfront

We built our distillery in the heart of the Seattle Waterfront, where millions (~10 million in 2019) visitors go each year. Our stills were hand-hammered in the highlands of Scotland, and are visible right behind our floor-to-ceiling windows in the tasting room.

We Won!

Our products have won dozens of awards and accolades, and in 2018, we were named Distillery Of The Year by the American Distilling Institute!

We Sell Everything We Can Make

Every year, we sell everything we can make, with some releases selling out in just a few days.

Now's The Time To Grow

Vodka and gin can be sold in the same year they are made, but whiskey takes 3-6 years to mature before it's ready to sell. We've proven that our whiskey is delicious. Now is the time to make more so we can continue to grow our sales in the future.
