Share a Tipple for International Day of Friendship!

This July, we are celebrating International Day of Friendship — but what exactly does this mean, and how can Yarm Distillery help you to share a moment with your friends? Read on to find out more.

What is International Day of Friendship?

The International Day of Friendship is a global event that celebrates “the idea that friendship between peoples, countries, cultures and individuals can inspire peace efforts and build bridges between communities”. The UN General Assembly proclaimed in 2011 that it would be celebrated on every 30 th July, and every year since it has been a movement that promotes solidarity and togetherness between everyone from neighbours to nations.

The Importance of Community

Here at Yarm Distillery, we understand the importance of getting together and enjoying one another’s company — we love to hear feedback about our products being enjoyed at celebrations, events, and even simple get-togethers between friends. Loneliness can have a devastating impact on our wellbeing, and spending time with others can provide opportunities to open up about our mental health, find solutions to issues, and bask in the joy of human connection. We’ll drink to that.

Cheers from Yarm Distillery

Whether your glass contains a fruity tipple like our Rhubarb and Ginger Gin, a warm kick like our Yarm Spiced Rum, or a classic favourite like our London Dry Gin, we want to encourage everyone this month to reach out to your friends and invite them to share a drink with you. Catch up with people you haven’t seen in a while, gift a loved one a bottle of their go-to drink, or simply have a chat over a cocktail or two. From our team to yours, cheers.
