Carhartt WIP has launched its first US-based coffee concept at the Nordstrom Men’s Store in New York City. In partnership with Nordstrom Ebar, this coffee concept opened on March 25, 2025, and will be open for twelve weeks at the location at 235 West 57th Street. Carhartt WIP, known for its adaptions of the American workwear brand Carhartt, put “its beans together” with Nordstrom to create this exciting new concept.

“Carhartt WIP has long been a brand that seamlessly crosses over between generational styles and subcultures—from vintage aficionados to streetwear enthusiasts—making it a natural fit for Nordstrom’s audience,” says Jian DeLeon, Nordstrom Men’s Fashion Director. “We’re excited to bring their first U.S.-based coffee concept to our New York City Men’s Store, creating a space that reflects the brand’s cultural influence beyond apparel. This collaboration not only highlights Carhartt WIP’s design ethos but also offers our customers an engaging shopping experience. The shop will also be installed in other Nordstrom locations in Austin, Chicago, Seattle and Walnut Creek, Calif., through May 4.

Nespresso

Starting today, Nespresso and Abel "The Weeknd" have teamed up to open a six-week vinyl pop-up at Nespresso's boutique. The SAMRA Origins Vinyl Café is an immersive pop-up listening cafe, inspired by Abel's Ethiopian heritage and the country’s significance as the birthplace of coffee — marking the latest chapter in their ongoing partnership. To celebrate this collaboration, Nespresso and The Weeknd have also released a limited-edition vinyl record pressed with Nespresso coffee grounds.

If you stop by the pop-up, guests can browse and listen to vinyl records handpicked by Abel, featuring a selection of music from Ethiopia and Africa. Of course, the listening would not be complete without a coffee in hand. Guests can sample custom coffee creations such as The Weeknd's Iced SAMRA Latte, made with oat milk, honey, and cinnamon, and also can explore Nespresso's new co-designed Vertuo POP+ espresso maker. The SoHo pop-up will remain open through mid-October, offering an interactive experience with five listening stations with headphones and a display of handpicked vinyl records.

In the era of what coffee experts call the "fourth wave of coffee," coffee drinkers are looking for something beyond a standard cup of coffee, focusing on cultural stories, unique flavors, and visual appeal.

In response, coffee brands such as Mr. Espresso and Boxx Coffee have leveraged new mixology techniques and creative twists, creating a multi-sensory experience that meets the changing demands of today's coffee drinkers. Here's how (and why) coffee brands like these have hopped on board this "fourth wave of iced coffee" innovation, supporting the idea that coffee is an experience -- just like a meal.

Nitro cold brew trend grows as specialty coffee takes center stage

Where the nitro cold brew market is headed

A new Nitrogenated Coffee Market Intelligence Study published by Grand View Research has estimated that the global nitrogenated coffee market is expected to reach USD 144.5 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 24.4% from 2024 to 2030. The rising interest in nitro cold brew is thought to be driven by the demand of health-conscious consumers who prefer nitro cold brew for its lower sugar and calorie content compared to traditional coffee beverages. In addition, the report suggests that nitro cold brew complements the growing demand for lactose-free and non-dairy alternatives in the coffee industry, offering a drink that has a natural sweetness without any dairy.

The report also highlighted major companies playing a role in the nitrogenated coffee market, which included: Starbucks Corporation, International Coffee & Tea, LLC, McDonald’s, Blackeye Roasting Co., and more. The North American nitrogenated coffee market secured the dominant share with 79.4% in 2023, owing to the well-established coffee culture, with the European market at 11.4% of the global revenue share in 2023. The study found that the smooth, creamy, and less-bitter taste profile of nitro cold brew has appealed to a wide range of coffee drinkers, particularly younger demographics and millennials who seek a sensory experience from drinking coffee.
