Laughing Cat Coffee carries a Reno roasting name that dates to 1990, now under owner Steven Horn. He acquired the business in late 2023 and relaunched it in June 2024, bringing a new chapter to a company associated for years with founder Mark Fleming.

## A roaster with a renewed home

Coverage in Daily Coffee News and Sprudge documented the transition and the Airway Drive location. The business combines coffee production with a place for customers to visit, while its website provides an online storefront for coffee and related drinks.

The change in ownership preserved the Laughing Cat name while giving Horn room to develop the shop’s current direction. Its long history belongs to the business; the more recent relaunch marks the beginning of his stewardship.

## Cold brew gets its own attention

In a 2026 Edible Reno-Tahoe feature, Horn discussed using a medium-roasted Guatemalan coffee together with a darker Mexican coffee for cold brew. That choice brings different roast characteristics into the same drink rather than relying on a single coffee and roast level.

The same account noted the addition of nitro cold brew during the previous summer. Cold brew and nitro give customers alternatives to hot brewed coffee, with preparation and texture forming part of the choice alongside the beans themselves.

## Beyond a café cup

The online shop lets customers browse products outside a visit to the roastery. Its catalog also includes Sportea cold-tea packets, offering a non-coffee option within the store’s broader beverage selection. The website lists the Airway Drive address and a direct owner contact for questions.

Laughing Cat’s current identity brings together an established local roasting name, a newer owner and a developing drinks menu. Customers can visit for a prepared drink or use the shop as a source for beverages to make at home, with the independent Reno business remaining the point of contact.
