Copper and Kings

Kentucky is known for bourbon, but what about brandy?  Copper and Kings is Louisville's very own distillery for American craft brandy.  Their brandy is distilled in copper pots (named Isis, Magdalena, and Sara, after women in Bob Dylan songs), and contains no added sugar, flavors, or synthetic chemicals to alter the taste.  The Butchertown Brandy and American Craft Brandy are aged in Kentucky bourbon barrels.  The brand also offers Apple Brandy, Absinthe, Cr&ftwerk (craft beer infused with brandy), and some limited release brandies and gins.  Currently, these spirits can be purchased in 28 states and they continue to expand.

In addition to the distillery, Copper & Kings boasts 3 distinct event spaces:  the courtyard, second floor art gallery, and rooftop skydeck.   They can host many types of events, from corporate functions to weddings!  

On the second Thursday of each month, Copper and Kings hosts a special workshop.  This January 12th, take a tour of the distillery and stay for their workshop on Warm Cocktails, with a focus on making toddies and ciders.  The workshop is $25; reservations are required. Participants must be 21 and older.

Copper and Kings is located at 1121 E. Washington Street, Louisville 40206.  If you'd like to view homes in the Butchertown area before your workshop at Copper and Kings, contact Family Realty to schedule a showing.
