ABOUT US
Who is Alaska Legends?
Established in 2023 in Ketchikan, Alaska, our journey began with a simple yet profound idea – to keep Alaska's rich folklore and legends alive through the art of crafting exceptional cider and wine.
In a place renowned for sharing wisdom through captivating tales, Alaska Legends aspires to be more than a cider and winery; we aim to be a neighborhood social spot where the warmth of community and the allure of Alaska's legends intertwine. Our name, a nod to the myths that echo through the mountains reflects our commitment to preserving the unique storytelling culture of Alaska.
Come, be part of our story. Share a glass, share a tale. At Alaska Legends Cider and Wine, every pour is a celebration of Alaska's legends, past and present. Cheers to community, camaraderie, and the enduring spirit of Alaska.
Ketchikan's Local Legends
At Alaska Legends Cider and Winery, we not only focus on folklore and Alaska legends/myths, but we also like to recognize and celebrate the local legends within our own community. These individuals are everyday heroes who make a significant difference in the lives of those around them. As a way to honor these unsung heroes, we nominate a different individual each month. Take a look below to see who we've nominated and how they've impacted our community.
Nelson Buendia, a familiar face at our post office for an impressive 27 years. Nelson's unwavering dedication shines through as he extends kindness to everyone who walks through the door, regardless of the season or the hustle and bustle of the post office. His commitment to helping others has made him a cherished part of our community.
