Cry January
January is an infamously difficult month for people: A mixture of hope for the future that is wrestled with regret, financial trickery, and the come down from the festive season. Along with this, the reduced sunlight and cooler temperatures of winter seem to play into what causes SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) or “winter depression”.
To help cure this, we give guests the chance to revel in it rather than resist it. Rather than shunning alcohol for the month in Dry January, we invite them to connect with their feelings of regret and grief by being part of ‘Cry January’.
