About Copperpenny Distilling Co.
We at Copperpenny have one mission - to make other people as passionate about quality artisanal spirits as we are. Our North Vancouver brand home is at the forefront of that mission - a one-of-a-kind Cocktail Lounge showcases our diverse range of craft spirits in a dynamic and fun cocktail menu while framed on the backdrop of our world class, Grain-to-glass Distillery. Located steps from Lonsdale Quay and a scenic 15-minute Seabus ride from downtown Vancouver, we’re looking to grow our team to deliver local and internationally inspired cocktails, distillery tasting flights, food pairings, and unforgettable memories for all that visit.
We are best known for our globally award-winning No. 005 Social Gin, as well as our Oyster Shell Gin for martinis – a truly west coast spirit. We continue to innovate and produce premium artisanal spirits that reflect the unique flavours and cultures of the Pacific Northwest region, to be enjoyed by palettes both locally and abroad.
