Kicking Horse Coffee
Invermere, BC
Once upon a time two young entrepreneurs grew restless of travelling. They wanted more wonder, and less wander. And they figured it was time to settle down and do something. Something big.
They picked a product they were passionate about: coffee. They chose the Canadian Rocky Mountains, near Invermere BC as the place where they would live, work and play.
In 1996 they got down to the business of hard, hot work; roasting small batches of good beans in their garage, and selling the freshest, best-tasting coffee they possibly could.
Though the ‘garage’ has grown bigger and there’s a lot more beans, it’s basically been the same business ever since.
