The Williamsburg section of Brooklyn has in recent years become renowned for, amongst other things, an abundance of rustically handsome chaps sporting buxom beards and expertly applied tattoo work. But what if we told you that Kinfolk 90 Wythe employs one of the handsomest chaps with the buxomest of beards and most intricately applied tattoos in all of Brooklyn? We’d be lying, of course, there’s no real way to gauge that, but Kinfolk’s own Thomas Gastelum is a sight for sore eyes, through thick-framed statement glasses and otherwise. Pretty T (as nobody calls him) runs our coffee program and does a damn good job at it. When he’s not pulling shots though, he’s improving people’s self esteem one poke at a time as an appointment-only custom tattooer. For the latest installment of “This Is Kinfolk” we sat Thomas down to talk about his history with coffee and tattooing, and then we made him take his shirt off.
