Copperworks Distilling is a showpiece whiskey micro-distillery, tasting room and retail store located in the heart of Seattle. Their storefront offers whiskey tastings, distillery tours, and educational events centered on the creation and enjoyment of fine whiskey. Copperworks crafts premium all-malt whiskeys, gins, and vodkas in traditional copper stills manufactured in Scotland.
Many people are surprised to learn whiskey starts with beer. Whiskey is essentially a beer that has been through the distillation process. It's the essential ingredient for a top-shelf, artisan whiskey.
The transparent partition that divides the distillery from the tasting room creates the perfect background for special events.
Jason Parker, Founder of Copperworks, was raised in Kentucky, the heartland of American whiskey. He became the first brewer at Pike Place Brewery in 1989 and went on to refine his craft with Fish Brewing Company, Redhook, and ultimately worked as Brewmaster at Pyramid Breweries for six years.
"There is no such thing as a bad whisky. Some whiskies just happen to be better than others." — William Faulkner
