About Us
Iโm Denaโina Athabascan from the Native Village of Tyonek in Alaska, a Yooper by upbringing, and a proud carrier of Finnish sisu. Basically, cold weather and stubborn perseverance run deep in my DNA. I like to think my ancestors bonded over herbal tea, warm mugs, and surviving brutal wintersโwhich explains why I believe a hot drink is a small but powerful act of love.
I fell hard for coffee in undergrad, back when staying awake required caffeine and cozy coffee shops felt like refuge. What stuck wasnโt just the buzzโit was the joy a good cup brings. Making that joy for others still feels like a gift my heart is grateful to give.
Copper Cup was born out of real life: hauling a six-month-old through feet of snow, zero parking, and a very strong need for coffee. We asked ourselves what our community needed mostโand the answer was simple: quality coffee, fast, with genuinely good service for people on the move.
My husband Michael followed me to the U.P. from the high deserts of Eastern Oregon, lured by endless hunting, fishing, andโsurpriseโsnow. Lots of it. Luckily, heโs hooked on the Northwoods now. A lifelong coffee aficionado with serious mechanical and building skills, Michael keeps Copper Cup running smoothly behind the scenes.
From our hearts (and mugs) to yoursโthanks for being here.
-Lucy & Michael (and BabyBarista1, BabyBarista2, and our fur babies)
