ABOUT
Your Neighborhood Stop
Welcome to Alaska Legends, where the spirit of the Last Frontier comes to life in every sip and story. Established in 2023 in the picturesque town of Ketchikan, 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 cozy haven, 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 and dance with the northern lights, reflects our commitment to preserving the unique storytelling culture of Alaska.
As we embark on this adventure, we invite you to join us in our snug haven, where the aroma of freshly brewed cider and the rich tales of the North blend seamlessly. Whether you're a local looking for a familiar spot or a visitor eager to experience the essence of Ketchikan, Alaska Legends is a place to unwind, socialize, and savor the flavors of our carefully crafted wines and ciders.
Come, be part of our story. Share a glass, share a tale. At Alaska Legends, 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.
