Introducing the ‘Black Currant’ cocktail, new on our spring menu and featuring our recently awarded No. 006 Oyster Shell Gin. Something fresh is happening at Copperpenny Distilling Co.! Join us today from 2PM to 7PM for a special Oyster Pop-Up Event featuring fresh, BC-local F***y Bay Oysters and our newest cocktail, Black Currant—a bright, coastal sipper made with lemon, rosemary, blackberries, and our award-winning No. 006 Oyster Shell Gin.

We’re also proudly showcasing this rare gin expression, recently crowned BC Food & Beverage Product of the Year. Crafted using freshly shucked F***y Bay oyster shells and distilled with BC ocean elements, No. 006 boasts a wonderfully savoury profile with vibrant citrus notes—making it the perfect match for this fresh berry and lemon cocktail. The tart blackberries and zesty lemon highlight the gin’s unique character in every sip.

Come by, shuck some oysters, sip something special, and soak up the good vibes!

Introducing the new spring menu’s Black Currant cocktail (as in the ocean current), a refreshing and aromatic cocktail that perfectly balances the bold, smooth notes of Copperpenny No. 006 Oyster Shell Gin with the bright, citrusy essence of lemon rosemary syrup. The tartness of fresh blackberries elevates the drink, adding a pop of color and a hint of natural sweetness.

Topped off with a fragrant sage leaf garnish, this cocktail is a sophisticated blend of flavors, offering a touch of earthiness to complement the gin’s refined character. It’s a drink that’s as striking as it is refreshing, perfect for sipping on a warm afternoon on our NOW OPEN PATIO or enjoying in our vibey late night lounge. Ask your server and they will tell you too...its damn right berry-liscious.
