Between the brewery and the distillery, we've been shortlisted for five tourism awards!
Posted by Tracey Baty on
The teams at the brewery and sister company Spirit of Yorkshire are celebrating after reaching the final in five categories of a prestigious tourism awards competition.
We have been shortlisted in the Remarkable Ethical, Responsible and Sustainable Tourism and the Remarkable Local Producer categories of the 14th annual Remarkable East Yorkshire Tourism Awards (REYTAs) which celebrate the quality of businesses and individuals working within the tourism industry. Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery has been shortlisted for the Remarkable Cuppa, the Remarkable Local Producer and the Remarkable Taste Awards.
Spirit of Yorkshire’s marketing director, Jenni Ashwood, is delighted with the news: “Tourism is an important part of the distillery’s offering, and the team is over the moon that the Pot Still Coffee Shop has been recognised by tourism chiefs in the region. We look forward to meeting our fellow finalists at the awards dinner.”
Councillor Nick Coultish, cabinet member for culture, leisure and tourism at East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “The awards are a testament to the popularity of the region as a visitor destination and the range of what’s on offer to see and do within Hull and East Yorkshire.
“The visitor economy is a hugely important sector for the region’s economic growth and prosperity and good luck to all of the amazing finalists this year.”
We will find out whether we have won at an awards dinner at Bridlington Spa on 14th November 2024.
Wish us luck!
