Hi,
This is Scott Davis, the Founder of Advanced Mixology - a family owned business located in the emerald city of Seattle Washington. I wanted to share with you our story and how we got started with this business.
In 2014 when my wife and I were looking to purchase some copper cocktail mugs for our kitchen, we noticed that most of the mugs out in the market were either extremely poor quality or were very expensive. We found mugs with stainless steel or nickel lining which had so little copper in them that they weighed less than a quarter pound. We were so frustrated that we decided to go directly to the manufacturers to get the mugs which we liked.
Luckily, we found a manufacturer who was as passionate as us about creating quality products. We spent almost 6 months understanding the process of making a copper mug, right from getting raw copper converted to copper sheets to hand hammering the completed mugs to get the famous "hammered" look. We brought in a metallurgist from University of California Berkeley to help us perfect the process of creating thick walled copper mugs.
THE RESULT - After almost 6 months visiting the factories and another 2 months to get the first sample mug completed, we had in our hands the perfect copper mug. This mug was much superior than what was being sold in the market. We were so impressed with the high quality mugs which this manufacturer was able to create now, that we decided to launch our own brand of copper mugs and named the brand - ADVANCED MIXOLOGY.
