About Us

Angus MacDonald, Coppersea's Master Distiller, has been studying the craft of fine spirit distillation for over 30 years, calling on a family tradition that goes back centuries. His quest to master this art led him to relationships with dozens of traditional folk distillers, beoming a keeper of this rare lore.

Angus' goal in starting Coppersea Distilling is to put in practice his hard-won knowledge, and reinvigorate American spirits making with a return to its traditional roots.

Michael Kinstlick, CEO, brings his entrepreneurial drive and acumen from his 20 years of business experience. He has an MBA from the Haas School of Business at the University of California at Berkeley.
