Swansea became known as Copperopolis from 1720, when 50% of the world’s copper and 90% of the UK’s copper was smelted in the area. Penderyn’s new distillery is now located in the powerhouse of the former copperworks building.

Drawing inspiration from the Welsh hills rich in high-quality copper, Copperopolis was created to bring wealth from the land. In 1980, copper production ceased when the Hafod works closed, but in 2023, Penderyn Distillery Swansea forged a new future for Copperopolis, once again mastering the elements of Wales to create the precious liquid known as Aur Cymru, the Gold of Wales.

FINISH: Long and elegant, with a slightly lemony and biscuity persistence, supported by a silky texture.
