Our Whiskey
Tennessee Sour Mash, the Old Copper Way
Old Copper is being developed around a classic Tennessee-style whiskey profile: a grain-forward sour mash, copper distillation, charcoal mellowing, and careful aging in charred white oak barrels.
The goal is a whiskey with warm corn sweetness, toasted oak, caramel, vanilla, and a smooth charcoal-mellowed finish.
Planned Small-Batch Spirits
- Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey
- Wheated Bourbon Whiskey
