Built by friends. Grown in D.C.
AltSol started with a handful of friends and one shared obsession: the plant. Everything since has been proving that instinct right.
Started in a city that doesn't do fluff
AltSol® is a craft cannabis company started in Washington, D.C. in 2015, when we first hit the market, expanding into West Virginia soon after. We are cultivators, innovators, and storytellers — a tight-knit team of friends turned industry leaders — committed to delivering the Mid-Atlantic's most desired cannabis.
While the science of cultivation can be found in textbooks, our true advantage lies in two irreplaceable elements: passion and perseverance. Each member of our team brings decades of experience, a love for the plant, and a relentless drive to improve ourselves and our garden.
We prioritize flavor and experience over yield — selecting the terpiest, most flavorful buds even if they produce smaller harvests. Our genetics program explores hundreds of potential strains to uncover hidden gems, while still producing proven commercial champions. Every bud is hand-finished and presented in its natural form, honoring the individuality of each plant.
2015 is when we first hit the market. First sale, first customers, D.C. Grown Since 2015. That's not a slogan. That's when the doors opened.
Day oneSoon after, we took the same standards into West Virginia. Same genetics program, same hand-finished process, same drive. Bigger footprint, nothing watered down.
The expansionBigger isn't the goal. Better is.
Flavor over yield
We pick the buds with the most terps, even when they come back smaller. Yield's a number. Flavor's the reason people come back.
A genetics house
Our genetics program runs through hundreds of strains to find the keepers: hidden gems and proven favorites. It's how DC's Genetic Authority stays ahead.
Hand-finished, always
Every bud is finished by hand, in its natural form. No shortcuts, no machine cuts. Just the plant, presented right.
