121. Drip Collective ft. Ty Banks
Manage episode 444682147 series 3607232
Our next guest is the creative force behind Drip Collective, West Loop’s newest coffee spot. He reflects on his earliest memories working for Peet’s Coffee as well as being the coffee buyer at Whole Foods. He then leans further into coffee by taking on a manager role with La Colombe and even relocated to LA to help open a West Coast location. Only to come back to Chicago to have a string of positions with La Colombe, Metric Coffee, and a hospitality job until he lands at Side Practice Coffee. (Shoutout Francis Almeda) We then reflect on the journey leading up to opening Drip Collective. A space that hosts events, latte art throw downs, and seasonal beverages. He’s thoughtful, inclusive, and a force. Please enjoy my conversation with Ty Banks.
