I mean, the trio brought me through several struggles of depressions, the loss of my mother and the grandfather who raised me, they were always the shows I turned to when I was feeling down over the last 20+ years. When James said that in the finale I am not ashamed to admit I was hit with a deep wave of emotion and started to cry.
I'm sure he does, it just makes him uncomfortable when people say it. He also likely hears it a lot, but if you met him what else would you think to say? lol That reminds me, Robin Williams used to vacation about a mile from my house and he would roast people for saying things like that and they loved every second of it. It's like he had thought up a roast for every possible greeting he might receive. Ah, got lost in a tangent. Seems to happen more often as I age.
In the era of streaming (as opposed to tv channels) I honestly don't mind this statement having fallen asleep and woken up to a completely different video on auto play before
Same... While slightly envious of his MP-5 lookalike pistol, why'd he chamber a round midway through the video just to eject it again? Also, guns and alcohol don't mix...
@@Shadeem I had the same look seeing how he struggled unloading the AR-15. Starting to clear the chamber before dropping the mag is a good way to have a big accident.
so many celebrity products are cheap marketing gimmicks where the celebrity in question has no real connection to the product and is just exploiting his/her fame for a quick buck. It really feels like James cares about making the best gin he can. watching his other videos where he's tasting different vodkas trying to come up with the best flavor combinations is so cool and I wish more people shared their passions like that.
agreed, i havent tried the gin, but from what ive seen, he genuinely wants to make a good product that he and his customers will enjoy. It's a breath of fresh air in the current landscape.
@@Chillllllbruh As someone who spent over 40 years in hand-to-glass combat, and stopped cold nearly three years back (not a drop since), I appreciate that sort of brutal honesty. A lot wouldn't, but as someone who suffers from this particular malady, I approve and endorse it. Just a shame that I never got the chance to taste any of James' brands ...
Joe, from 'inthedrink', speaks for all of us, you brought us oodles of happiness. Not really a gin drinker myself but his one review would probably make me try it. PS Good choices there Lucy, just make sure you don't make James drink too much!
The fact that you chose to boost small channels means that I don't even mind the "products for promo" element of this. It's much more commendable than sending stuff out to already established channels, and you're giving the channels a shoutout. About as equitable as marketing can get.
I got a bottle of Asian Parsnip and London Drizzle yesterday. Asian parsnip is already about 2/3 gone. Really good and best gin I've ever had. Cheers Mr. May!
I don't drink either, yet here I am too. Actually, even when I used to drink I didn't like gin. What does that say about the entertainment factor of James ( Bim ) May?
I was reluctant to try James Gin, since celebrity products are usually overhyped and overpriced. And yes, it is not cheap, but the London Drizzle I bought is actually really good with a delicate floral taste. I would recommend mixing it just with Tonic - no lemon.
@@swedishchef3895 Even worse in Canada. I'm 6'1" tall, drive ~30km to work at 100km/h with a 5 pound bag of cat food in the trunk of the car that gets 18mpg. I spent half my youth learning imperial and all the rest metric so we ended up blending them together in an incomprehensible mess. I kinda love it though.
Crikey, your Asian Parsnip is absolutely phenomenal! This variety of gin also makes an exciting Bloody Mary - it's like an alcohol based vegetable soup. All the best to you! Edit: I must say, you make an incredible gin, congratulations on your success.
@@MrMega200 I think he meant to lean in to the Americaness (which isn't a word) and lay it on thick. He probably loves guns but it felt more like an over the top "MURICA!!! FCK YEAH!" take on a review. It is not my sense of humor, but I felt he did a pretty decent job. Aside from how he handled his weapons. I'm not an American and I felt embarrassed for them.
ok. that was decidedly weird. but since I've sacrificed an entire individual bottle of fevertree gingerbeer and half a key lime, I will carry on to the end.
I tried the American Mustard and the Asian Parsnip in G&T's at The Royal Oak this past September. Absolutely excellent! Thank you James! (Love the pub a well!)
I like these videos, but I genuinely would like to see James try Bill's Gin Buck, I mean I think these videos could get better* by serving James every version of the reviewers 'taster' after every review 😆 * Not that I would ever question the production decisions of the great may or his hired hands
Don't tell me what to do. Love your bro you are by far 1 of the funniest most interesting ppl I have seen on TV or on youtube.Glad your old age hasn't changed you!!! chears
We love the Asian Parsnip, London Drizzle and California Dreaming but, unfortunately, the American Mustard gin seems to be sold out at the moment. Any idea if and/or when the next batch will be available please?
Found a bottle of Asian Parsnip at a local liquor store and immediately had to pick it up. The clerk there explained a regular requested it be stocked there but hadn't come in yet to pick any up. Lucky me~ It was the best gin I've had yet! I should do a review myself...though wouldn't be my first time trying it o:
Jaime Quizas. Not only can I not buy your gin, but when clicking on the American Mustard in the web shop, I just get a 404 error. Spain's expats need James Gin!
I'm from a country where gin is not much appreciated. I'm 48 yo, probably a little to fond of cognac, rhum, and other strong alcools, but I've never tested any Gin. For sure, I I come across one of you bottles, be reinsured, I'll get it in order to fill that culture gap between France and Great Britain. Love you mate :-)
James may and Techmoan need to do a crossover and just have a conversation about circuits or something...they have almost the exact same sounding voice it's remarkable. Same personality and interests seemingly, it just fits.
Do y'all have any plans to offer a sampler for sale? I don't generally care for gin, but I'm curious enough that I'd buy a flight of singles to give it a shot.
Not only did he unload his very loaded and chambered guns, he loaded and rechambered the submachine looking gun when going to get a glas. Where does homeboy live where he cant walk to his kitchen without a fire-ready firearm x)
Bill's intro reminded me there is an excellent band called Ambersmoke more people should listen to, especially Girls in Merzbow Shirts and Everything, Forever
James, I hope you know you genuinely have brought us a lot of happiness.

He had a point you should unload your firearms before drinking.

This *is* James we're talking about, tho. I expect nothing less than obsessive perfection from The Reassembler.
James's face when Bill pulled out the ginger ale. Priceless 😅
James Gin has single handedly brought happiness back into my life
James Gin cured not only my cancer but my receding hairline as well.

now i wonder what oz clark would say about this gin
I just watched a video of someone drinking wine from the 1700’s and I thought of Oz Clark. Lol
I wish those two would do another wine series. I really enjoyed the first two.

Just a pity his drills for clearing the weapons were terrible.
It was embarrassing to watch.
It was frankly cringe that he has to make guns his personality. It made him and his video look hollow.

It's got ammunition around too not good.
This kind of thing and drinking don't mix well.
what a lovely video with oh so lovely people in it. I loved every second of this.
Hey James, just make whatever content you want, whether it's James gin or a Lego house. I love all your uploads.
Oh man, I've been waiting for more video's like this since the first video. Gj James and crew!
Hello, viewers…
Hello 😂
you have to start with hello...

Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas 🎄 and a happy new year 🥳 ❤❤
"Don't comment" 😆
I agree with the young lad, Top Gear and TGT was some of the best TV made. 🚗
Couldn't stand him, personally
James Gin, Give In.
Absolute legend, mate.
6:50 i like how hes trying to be super precise but then the table is wobbly af.
Joe has got the right idea. James and his gin mean happiness for all!
Heard they're going to start putting it on the menu for school lunches
The wry smile when James realises he was premature in his criticism of the crate 😂
The London drizzle IMO is like a more mild version of Bombay sapphire. It needs a lime twist for sure.
Big fan love you very much just subscribed on RUclips I love the knowledge you have giving us throughout the years
Hi James, saw you at the O2 Paul McCartney Concert last night. What a show! Hope you enjoyed it!
haha yes me too
@itz.jxm3s_962 hope you enjoyed the concert!
I am so cross at you for making this video EXACTLY when you know I am late on Christmas presents.
this was a great xmas gift, thanks James
does the American Ramsturd pair well with ChickFilet?
ok.

Wow! With reviews like those......James will have to figure out how the distributors can deal with all the orders! 😂😂
Sorry James - I subscribed by mistake oh no ... and I liked.
I liked, I'm commenting now, and I'm already subscribed.
Congratulations May, because of this video I’ve ordered a bottle of your finest Asian Parsnip Gin. I hope it lives up to the hype. Cheers mate
Don't tell me what to do.
Love your bro you are by far 1 of the funniest most interesting ppl I have seen on TV or on youtube.Glad your old age hasn't changed you!!! chears
So glad there was another Bill review.

Gin. James May. Good stuff.
These people that say they love the Grand Tour and grew up watching the Grand Tour make me feel old 😂
I am sure the gin is good but is it twice as good as comparables as the price would indicate?
I've tried the Main 3 and Drizzle is my personal favorite. Served with chunk of ice and a splosh of Canada Dry Ginger Ale. Just the way I like it.
What a nice Xmas gift to these reviewers!
I like the gins, especially the American Mustard - that makes a great alternative martini ...
I'm sorry, "heavily armed"?!? LOL
Simon, whom didn't even review James Gin, gets the nod.
James is showcasing tiny RUclips channels, and it's earning brownie points with me.
Simon’s gin carrier! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Bill seems like a sweetheart
btw. When will Asian Parsnip be available in the store on your site ???
My dad and I recently ordered a bottle of London Drizzle and we are very happy with it.
Jaime Quizas. Not only can I not buy your gin, but when clicking on the American Mustard in the web shop, I just get a 404 error.

James May is such a genius. He's funny even when he's not saying anything, just looking
James would be terrified by my hobby room. 😅
Can't wait to have this in our liquor stores in North Carolina!
like how the APRON turns you into an expert
this is like an early christmas present
I can’t stop drinking it, already gave a few bottles away and the Asian Parsnip is absolutely delicious
James you should review some other gins. I'd suggest Barr Hill Gin from Vermont. Very tasty. I have not had yours yet but looking forward to it!
The 2nd blokes at least keep a bottle of "Buffalo Trace, Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey" on their top shelf....so at least they've got taste 😂
Drinking rye whiskey and watching James gin reviews, I'm in an alcoholics algorithm
I heard once that Gin can leave you feeling a bit depressed. Is there any truth to that?
Do y'all have any plans to offer a sampler for sale? I don't generally care for gin, but I'm curious enough that I'd buy a flight of singles to give it a shot.
Limited edition Simon Makes 3 bottle box set would be a top seller.
This proves there are some weird channels out there. I need to order some gin now... Happy Christmas!
Knowing Captain Slow is likely always buzzing on gin is quite remarkable honestly….
LOL! When that guy pulled out his gun. So American. Never combine weapons and alcohol. Or table saws.
Great news!!!!
‘James Gin does not officially endorse the mixing of delicious premium alcohol with firearms’
6:45 "Alright now that the guns are clear 🫡"
I got about 45sec into this video, hit pause, and poured myself a California Dreamgin'
Not only did he unload his very loaded and chambered guns, he loaded and rechambered the submachine looking gun when going to get a glas. Where does homeboy live where he cant walk to his kitchen without a fire-ready firearm x)
Perfect video James ❤
That guy trying to clear the AR was pretty scary. Clearing a weapon with a magazine on, is a recipe for disaster
James may single handed trying to bring back the ginpocalips and overtake fentanyl for zombiefied people on the streets. Yay James.
What about the Dacia?
“Now that our guns are clear we’ll grab a glass”
James:😟
That bald guy got all those weapons but can't get himself into the frame
4:35 I'm surprised James didn't spot the bottle of 'knob' on the shelf behind.
Bill's intro reminded me there is an excellent band called Ambersmoke more people should listen to, especially Girls in Merzbow Shirts and Everything, Forever
Have you tried it with candied jalapeño ?
James May? In ‘Blue Peter’ presenter mode? I’ll take it :)
hoping to get a bottle or two to try this Christmas!!
tested all of your Gins and i really must say they are all perfectly made .
