Founded 2023
by Nick Graham
Grabba Dept. started in 2023 with a simple belief: the leaf deserves the same respect as anything else you put your name on.
Founder Nick Graham grew up between the bodegas of New York and the boulevards of Los Angeles, where grabba was never a product — it was a ritual. Passed hand to hand. Rolled on album covers. Talked about like vintage denim.
So he built a department for it. Every Grabba Dept. leaf is hand-selected, fire-cured slow, and finished by hand in small runs. No two batches taste the same. No two leaves look the same. That's the point.
