About Alpen Sierra Coffee
Founded in 1998 at Lake Tahoe in the Northern Sierra Nevada, Alpen Sierra has grown to become the premier roaster of speciality coffee in California. Having spent much of his life in the European Alps and the Sierra Nevada founder Christian Waskiewicz’s love of good living has become the foundation for Alpen Sierra’s goal of providing the highest of quality coffee drinking experience.
As Alpen Sierra has grown and experienced all facets of the speciality coffee industry, most notably the environments in which the coffee farming families live at origin, it became apparent that to be passionately and actively involved in the future of the industry, they would have to put their money where their hearts are. Alpen Sierra embraced the concept and practices of sustainability as they entered the new millennium. In the year 2002 Alpen Sierra was one of the first speciality micro-roasters in Northern California to become certified organic within the USDA’s newly launched National Organic Program.
With environmentally conscious production at the heart of the production all vehicles at Alpen Sierra have recently been converted to run on Bio Fuels.
Here at Glenfinlas we regularly use Alpen Sierra’s Organic Dolomiti Blend as an espresso coffee in our own cafes, we find it has a great body & smooth finish – perfect in a cappuccino or latte.
