Our Story
Horses and coffee have taken me far in life. Farther than expected for someone who doesn't make their living 100% in the saddle or behind a roasters counter. My name is Kayla Mann, and Wild Horse Espresso is the lovechild of my PNW coffee snobbery and the horse girl in me. Raised in the shadow of Mt.Rainier, I fell in love with the bean that rules the waking world from an early age. My next love came in the form of a wild horse at 16. Chief has carried me through the lowest, highest, deepest, and steepest parts of the western US as well as my life. I owe a lot to that horse, I figured starting a business dedicated to him was a start on my repayment plan. You don't know good company until you've been in that of a mustang. Throughout my working years, I've been blessed with jobs that cover me in either coffee grinds or horse hair. One particular horse hair job floated me through Montana and I jumped ship to stay in the Last Best Place. Marry in even! Over the last decade I've been able to enjoy this state for all she's worth. And now, I'm blessed with the opportunity to share with Montana my loves and passion. Good coffee, good company, and good horses.
