Wine Flirts and Wallflowers: The Different Drop Story | #162
Description
In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Tom Hollings from Different Drop. Tom is a self-confessed wine flirt whose passion turned into an eCommerce business. With a focus on wines crafted by real people with a sense of adventure and authenticity, Different Drop unearths the best and most exciting drops from producers all over Australia and with some great tech know-how, makes them accessible to all. In today’s chat we cover a heap of ground from how he and his Co-founder Brett, started the business from Brett’s mum’s garage in 2003, how they pivoted to doing their own delivery and what he learnt from meeting the great Ricky Ponting. And we ask a very controversial question - ice cubes in red wine. Passable or hell no? Tackling the big issues here.
