Wild Infusion Coffee is a California brand from founder Shelley Tseng that blends specialty-grade Arabica with functional mushrooms and real botanicals in single-serve pour-overs. Shelley built the brand after mushroom coffees on the market failed both taste and brew ritual, finding early customers through nearly 50 tasting events. Previewer published her founder interview because the product finally tastes like coffee first. First Sip kits start at $9.99 and the Starter Set is $30. If you want mushroom coffee that still behaves like pour-over, Wild Infusion is the Story brand to know. Shelley Tseng's founder interview on Previewer is the place to hear how the pour-over ritual came together.
