About Piqued

My name is Sam King

Hi, I’m the founder of Piqued Coffee, a small mountain-town coffee cart born out of curiosity, creativity, and a love for the outdoors. What started as a simple idea — serving great coffee at community events — quickly turned into a full-on mission. I wanted to create something that didn’t just serve caffeine, but sparked connection, supported active lifestyles, and gave people that extra little jolt to chase their day. Based in South Lake Tahoe, I aim to bring Piqued Coffee to the kinds of events that make this area special — trail races, bike festivals, and early morning community gatherings. Every cup reflects the effort, thought, and excitement that went into bringing this dream to life.

Whether you’re racing up a mountain or just chasing a good cup of coffee, I hope Piqued adds something special to your day. Thanks for stopping by — I can’t wait to meet you.
