Pusha T Unveils the Grindin Coffee Brand and Capsule Collection

Pusha T is brewing up something special with the launch of his coffee brand, Grindin, paying homage to his iconic Clipse anthem. This weekend, Grindin’s high-powered, no-frills black coffee blend takes center stage at exclusive pop-up events in Los Angeles, promising a caffeine kick with Pusha’s relentless energy at its core. Café Tropical, a local gem steeped in culture, will be the first to pour the Grindin blend, giving fans an intimate preview before the official nationwide launch in early 2025.

Adding to the hype, Grindin will pop up at Camp Flog Gnaw on November 16, offering festival-goers a unique brand taste. And it’s not just coffee on the menu—Grindin’s debut comes with exclusive merch drops, including a limited-edition Grindin Coffee x Carhartt WIP hoodie at Café Tropical and festival-specific gear at Camp Flog Gnaw.
