Blend Your Own Spirit Infusion in Ketchikan: Take home your custom creation

Mix your own infusion from scratch, then design the label to take it home.

A two-hour blending class at a Ketchikan distillery where you mix botanicals, herbs and spices into a house spirit, create a custom label, and bottle what you made to take home. The experience opens with a history of the historic fire station building and a walkthrough of how the distillery makes its local spirits, followed by tastings of their house lineup before you move to the blending station. You're 21 or older, and a live guide leads the whole thing in English.

Step-by-step itinerary

Distillery tour and infusion class

• Attend historic fire station briefing
• Learn distilling process of local spirits
• Taste house spirits
• Blend custom infusion with botanicals
• Create custom label for bottle

The experience

The class starts with a briefing on the fire station's history and a look at how the distillery produces its spirits: the process, the equipment, the local angle. Then you taste the house spirits they've already made, so you know what you're working with before you start blending your own.

Once tastings are done, you move to the hands-on part: mixing your own infusion from the botanicals, herbs and spices the distillery provides. There's no shopping list or prep. Everything you need to build a custom blend is already there. You choose what goes in, how much, and what the final bottle tastes like. When the infusion is done, you design a custom label for it, so the bottle that goes home with you is actually yours, not a souvenir, but something you made and named.

The whole experience runs two hours. You leave with one bottle of your signature creation, ready to share with friends and family or keep for yourself. The distillery is wheelchair accessible, and public transportation options are available nearby if you're not driving.
