November 12, 2025 - Just in time for holiday cheer, Copperworks Distilling Co. introduces Copperworks Pondera Cabernet Cask American Single Malt Whiskey a limited-edition release celebrating the distillery's partnership with award-winning, family-owned boutique winery, Pondera Winery.

Copperworks Pondera Cabernet Cask American Single Malt Whiskey was crafted using pale malt and matured for over seven years in a refill Copperworks cask before finishing for six months in a Cabernet Sauvignon cask from Pondera. The cabernet cask previously held a gold award-winning wine that scored 92 points from the Seattle Wine Awards in 2019.

"This collaboration with Pondera represents exactly what we love about this area," said Copperworks President and Co-Founder Jason Parker.

Tasting Notes
Caramel apple and incense cedar greet maraschino and woodland flora on the nose, a subtle vanilla underlying every stage of the tasting experience. On the palate, leather and fresh linen mingle with cabernet grape and chocolate orange, key lime pie and crushed Douglas fir tips giving way to the finish. Finally, cotton candy and vetiver linger while you ready your next sip.

About Copperworks Distilling Company ~ 2018 Distillery of the Year
Opened in 2013, Copperworks Distilling Company is an award-winning craft distillery, tasting room, and gift shop located in the high-traffic waterfront tourist district of downtown Seattle. The distillery produces small-batch American Single Malt Whiskey, a series of gins, and vodka, all from malted barley. Copperworks was founded by co-owners/distillers Jason Parker and Micah Nutt ~ both craft brewers with more than 30 years of experience in the alcohol industry. They built the distillery to answer the question: “How would spirits taste if they were distilled from superior craft beer (without the hops) instead of the typical methods of ingredients of conventional distilleries?” The answer led Copperworks to become a pioneer in producing American Single Malt Whiskey, a fast-growing spirits category with substantial national and international market interest. Copperworks’ spirits are distilled in traditional copper stills that were specifically created in Scotland for the distillery, and for the distillation of each individual spirit. Copperworks’ high-quality craft spirits have been recognized with multiple national and international awards, and the company was named the 2018 Distillery of the Year by the American Distilling Institute. In addition, Copperworks’ whiskey and gin have won Double-Gold medals and scored 94 – 96 points in prestigious spirits competitions. Copperworks spirits are found on the shelves of bars, restaurants, and retail stores throughout Washington State. Copperworks also offers tastings, tours, and other events focused on enjoying and learning about fine distilled spirits, including its ‘hands-on’ single-malt whiskey blending workshop. Copperworks was voted Best Distillery in the 2023 Best In The PNW contest presented by The Seattle Times.
