The Wiz Khalifa Hemp Grinder is a 2-part herb grinder made from biodegradable hemp composite, measuring 55mm in diameter. It carries Wiz Khalifa's endorsement and features his cartoon-style portrait on the lid — a functional pocket grinder that won't sit in a landfill for the next 500 years. If you're after a lightweight daily grinder that does the job without costing the earth (literally), this is the one.
A biodegradable hemp grinder solves the one problem nobody talks about: what happens to cheap plastic grinders when the teeth wear down and you bin them. They sit in landfill, forever. The Wiz Khalifa Hemp Grinder is made from pressed hemp fibre composite — it grinds your herbs the same way a plastic grinder does, but when it eventually reaches the end of its life, it breaks down naturally. The material feels slightly rougher than standard plastic, with a matte texture and a bit of heft that makes it feel less like a toy than you'd expect from a 55mm grinder.
The 2-part design keeps things simple. No kief screen, no multi-chamber fuss — just a top with teeth and a bottom that catches your ground herb. Twist, open, load. That simplicity is actually a strength for a grinder at this price point. Fewer parts means fewer things to break, and the single chamber is dead easy to clean with a stiff brush or a quick soak in isopropyl alcohol.
One honest limitation: the teeth on a hemp composite grinder won't stay as sharp as long as aluminium teeth. If you're grinding through large quantities daily, you'll notice the difference over months. For casual use — a few sessions a week — it holds up well. We've had these on the shelf since they launched and the feedback is consistent: solid for the price, good conversation starter, genuinely eco-friendly rather than just marketing fluff.

Complete your session setup with rolling papers, tips, or a smell-proof stash jar. If you find yourself wanting a finer grind with kief collection down the line, check out the aluminium 4-part grinders in our smokeshop — they pair well as an upgrade once you've decided grinding is part of your daily routine.
Tearing herbs apart by hand is messy, inconsistent, and wastes material. You end up with chunks that burn unevenly and stems that poke through your rolling paper. A grinder — even a simple 2-part like this one — gives you an even, fluffy consistency that packs better, burns smoother, and gets more out of less herb. We've been selling grinders since 1999 and the single most common upgrade people make to their smoking setup is switching from fingers to a proper grinder. The difference is immediate.
At 55mm, the Wiz Khalifa Hemp Grinder fits in a jacket pocket or a small bag without any bulk. It's not trying to be a desktop grinder for heavy sessions — it's a grab-and-go piece for someone who wants something portable, functional, and not made from petroleum-based plastic. The Wiz Khalifa branding is a bonus if you're a fan, but the real selling point is the hemp composite material. You're getting a working grinder that aligns with how a lot of people already think about sustainability.
Yes. It's made from pressed hemp fibre composite, which breaks down naturally over time. It won't last forever — that's the point. When it wears out, it decomposes rather than sitting in landfill like a standard plastic grinder.
It produces a medium grind — consistent enough for rolling and packing bowls. It won't give you the ultra-fine powder you'd get from a 4-part aluminium grinder with a screen, but for everyday use it does the job well.
For one or two sessions, absolutely. You can grind roughly 0.5-1g per load depending on how tightly you pack it. It's a pocket grinder, not a party grinder — if you need to prep larger amounts, go for something 63mm or above.
With regular use (a few times a week), expect several months of solid performance. The teeth will gradually dull faster than aluminium. For daily heavy use, a metal grinder is the better long-term investment — but you'll lose the biodegradable benefit.
Yes, a quick wipe with isopropyl alcohol on a cotton bud works fine for the teeth and chamber. Avoid soaking it for extended periods — the hemp material can absorb liquid if left submerged. A dry brush after each session is the easiest maintenance routine.
Yes. It carries his official endorsement and features a cartoon-style portrait of Wiz Khalifa on the lid. It's part of the Santa Cruz Shredder collaboration line bearing his name.
