Our Story

As Bing says, there is a long, and a short version to every story—or, as she also likes to say, Jess’ version (long form) and Bing’s (much shorter).

To get the long version of our story requires a visit to our tasting room. Highlights include: details of a trip to Europe where we hatched our plan to start a distillery over cocktails; how right as we were applying for our liquor licenses COVID-19 attempted to wiped out the entire world; how the very first product we made at the distillery wasn’t gin or vodka, but hand sanitizer that we donated to first-responders and essential workers; and that as a husband and wife team, our monthly cocktail challenge can get really competitive sometimes…

In the meantime, here is a short version: We are two creative individuals who believe in ourselves, in our work, and would like to share our passion with the world.

And our story continues…

- Jess and Bing, Founders of Copper Cat Distillery

“Imaging there’s this cat - he just had a fight with other street cats, and he WON. There’s a piece of his ear missing from the fight, but you know what? He’s feeling that he’s going to conquer the world”

Bing’s description to the graphic designer who designed the Copper Cat logo.
