Penderyn Icons of Wales 12 - Copperopolis
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. This is #12 in the "Icons of Wales" series, bottlings celebrating a significant person, milestone or event from Wales. 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.
