Grumpy Cat coffee will make its debut on Aug. 7 in an attempt to capitalize on one of last year’s viral sensations.

The cat, whose name is Tardar Sauce, has a perpetual frown on its face due to feline dwarfism.

It shot to Internet stardom after a photo of it was posted on Reddit, but it was later featured on a number of websites and even on the front page of the Wall Street Journal.

And while there are Grumpy Cat coffee mugs and other products with Tardar Sauce’s likeness on it, Today.com said it is the first time the cat will be used to sell coffee.

“It’s awfully good,” reads the slogan for the drinks. Grumpy Cat Grumppuccino will come in three flavors: vanilla, mocha, and coffee, according to its website.

“No price per bottle yet but will be comparable to what’s out in the market,” Ben Lashes, the cat’s agent, told Today.
