Phresh Ingredient x Press Club Cocktailbar Menus
Right after the Dupont Underground exhibit, I was in one of my potnas said, "Let's go grab a drink!" We landed @pressclubcocktailbar, a vinyl-heavy speakeasy laced in smooth vibrations. One of those places where you walk in and it feels like family off rip.
I could tell the owner was carrying a lot, so I spoke on it.
Y'all know how I talk. He told me sometimes you sit with something for months, and all it takes is one word from someone to help get over the hump. That moment turned into an opportunity. @pressclubcocktailbar tapped in with local artists to reimagine early-2000s album covers for their upcoming menu sleeves. I was supposed to be in Barcelona expanding my storytelling, but God had a different plan. I shared some concepts with the team, and they said, "Phresh, I've seen your work. Go deeper." So we scheduled a shoot and made the @pressclubcocktailbar team the subjects.
Music guided everything. We locked in talkin about J Dilla's Donuts. Then @tiki.dev said he'd been back on The Blueprint and that sealed it for me. The space, the mood, the album, all aligned. A few days later, we knocked it out.
Utmost gratitude to the entire @pressclubcocktailbar family for the trust. If you're in the district, pull up for great cocktails, beautiful bites, and illa people.
