Wonder if he'd still have the same upbeat fuzzy positivity towards the young lad if the review was just the opposite and negative lol ofcourse he's supportive of Mr. 52 views. He's speaking up about his product ofcourse they're going to stick together lol
Same here,don’t drink gin,started watching this to see how bad the reviews would be,and see how James would handle that,but the reviews were good and I ended watching the video feeling good for James and the same for his product.
You know what, your social media manager is a gem. This video idea was brilliant advertising for your gin and comes across as legitimately genuine. I'm probably gonna buy a bottle myself. Make sure you keep them well paid, they're doing you right.
With the second review I kept waiting for the bloke's mum to come in to see if his homework was finished yet, only to stumble upon him drinking his dad's collection and lose her mind.
Yes, he's clearly poor. That's one way to say he's poor. Another sign is that he mentions drinking it once cause it's otherwise unaffordable, which May didn't understand at all.
James gives gin reviewers exposure for their channels, while they try out his non-profit gin that helps charities. You don't get much nicer than that! Hats off to you James, and your crew.
Non-profit gin that helps charities ? What ?! Liver Cancer Free ?! Dry Liver No More ?! How about a reduction when you buy a fast car ànd one of the gins ? Or maybe a celebrity tobacco ? Or is smoking taking it too far for a charity ?
I don't think it helps charities, I think James just said it is running " _as_ a charity" at the moment, meaning he has not earned a profit from the whole operation just yet. There is a big difference between being non-profit by donating proceeds to charities, and simply not yet being profitable due to low sales, and if I understood him correctly, his company is the latter type.
Have you ever had Roku Gin? Aside from Citadelle, it's one of my favorites. It just has a bit of an Asian flair to gin. And I wonder if "Asian Parsnip" might also be producing a wonderfully Asian vibe accord of flavors.
As a lover of both gin and diesel engines, I had to watch this to make sure I wasn't going to be spending any extra money unnecessarily. This has helped. Thank you.
I love Bills intro so much, its a small known secret among us who spend too much time on TH-cam that for some strange reason channels ran by retired content creators tend to somehow be as noisy and eccentric as can be, probably only second to some gaming channels, but they certainly have their own style. I remember once finding a heavily edited heavy metal intro to a review of some product so mundane house keeping product that i will probably never recall it, but the intro? true art!
It's a blessing and a curse finding some old guy passionate about something you never considered. They got me out here buying model trains and collecting vintage tobacco pipes
I'm not a gin person, but I may just buy a bottle to try just because of this channel. I love James' dry sense of humor. The best of the three on Top Gear for sure.
Now we wait for old mate Bill's channel to explode. What an absolute legend! It amazes me how far the fame of May, Clarkson and Hammond has travelled. So many people have watched them for endless hours. Pretty crazy to think about.
I am an alcoholic, so I haven't had a drink in eight years. At such moments I wish I could drink "normally". I don't miss the drunkenness, but I do miss the pleasure of the taste of a good drink. I wish James the best of luck in his endeavour!
Maybe the charcoal cleanses his pallet before trying the sprit. I know spirits are cleaned by passing through charcoal before infusion of the flavoroids!
@@JamesMayDrinks You should have a caveat on the bottle; "Please drink responsibly, don't be like Richard Hammond in a bumper car rally". No-one wants tro be short, angry and wants to fight everything. #FightingCider
The genuine look of happiness he got when the no nonsense guy liked his gin shows he actually cares about it and isn’t just a mascot or advertiser of the product. Unlike many other celebrities.
Thank you, thank you! I have enjoyed watching you for years in the states. I never purchased gin until yours. Very glad I did. God bless you James May!!
Yes, finally a TH-cam channel that doesn’t beg for subscribers. I’ve always said that if the quality is there then that takes care of itself. Plus I’m the kind of person that if you beg I’ll more than likely not anyway.
First - _love_ the jacket! Where can I get one? Second - "eccentric"? Your producers picked some doozies! Bill eating the burned end of his match was hilarious.😂
Can we all agree that James May is NOT the other guy from Top Gear. Also, he is the type of guy you would love to sit and have a couple of drinks and talk about cars, bikes and everything else under the sun.
James May is literally the only person that I watch 'reaction videos' of. I'm not really into the market for gin reviewing channels, but I might have to check out those Ozark blokes as I'm in the Ozarks as well. If they're close enough it might be worth heading out that way to see if I can try some of James gin as I don't have a way otherwise to.
Normally, I not only pass on reactions, I block those channels. This was as much fun as I would have in a week. Congrats on the gin, and thank you Mr May and company for years and years and years of smiles.. and Cheers!
Looking forward to see those bottles in local shops here in Indonesia. You're not the other guy, James. You're the guy who roasts everyone!!! The one with Supercar Blondie is one of the best!!!!!
it feels so wierd knowing that you can hammond have a youtube channel, jeremy is probably gonna be next with a channel called "jeremy clarksons galactic carrots" or something
6:05 I think his suggestion to try it just once is based on the price, not a criticism of how good the gin was. As in you can only afford it once, and not regularly.

No.

didn't even question why James was shouting at the camera .. I just accepted it
I thought it was just bad acoustics
Dint know he was shouting
Till backstage Lucy stopped him!
I love how James educates Lucy. Common sense is lost.
Same! Infact I didn't realise he was shouting until the lady behind the camera mentioned it lol
Just seemed like every other youtube intro
“He’ll go far, that lad.”
Melted my heart. Just a genuine respect for a young person making media.
Wonder if he'd still have the same upbeat fuzzy positivity towards the young lad if the review was just the opposite and negative lol ofcourse he's supportive of Mr. 52 views. He's speaking up about his product ofcourse they're going to stick together lol

That’s exactly what I was thinking… I’m still confused by most of the video. Man couldn’t even follow his own video format.

Ginfluencers appears to be an aging homosexual couple. Good on them for sticking together.
What I meant by "straight out of the bottle" was the excellent gin drinking and chess match video and Thank you for watching my video, Cheers!
So pleased you saw this and commented, gave you a subscribe
Best review ever. Thanks.

that chess video was absolutely fantastic. lol

Lucy does and doesn’t know what she is doing, which is why she is perfect. Great show guys.
We love this gin! It still has us talking and discussing... while drinking of course! We're gonna go back and try the suggested cocktails soon!
Glad you guys like it!

One of my fav gin reviewers.
@@arugono Is he an alien though?
@@joshjamesuk just a quirky Brit. Very high energy
That was both fun and funny. Good review too.
A bit cruel on James' part but I guess he went into it expecting him to insult the gin 😂
Awww he was so happy with the first one. Like in his face you could see James so happy. Love that.
you can literally read the joy on his face when the dude likes his gin. You keep going mate, don't you ever stop!
The way James smiles and says "He likes it" so surprised and enthusiastically, like when you give your dog a new treat or toy :')
I love these videos, they make my day so much better, please keep making them.
Thank you. Will do.
@@JamesMayDrinks Was it sloe gin?
4:05 love that you don't take credit for other people's work. We need more of this level of humility and honesty.
Seeing your videos pop up on my feed always brings a smile to my face. Thank you
Thank you for watching.
Whoever came up with the idea of this video is a genius. Adverts within adverts for James's Gin.
1:05 "it's presented by a martian" i almost cried laughing.. 🤣🤣
"He swore"

I still want more episodes of "Unpimp My Ride". "And that's just casual." "Let's sort that out." "Standard!"
I need to see James have a conversation with that last man immediately
If James is the quintessential Englishman, that man *is* the American West.
I'm not a gin person, but I may just buy a bottle to try just because of this channel.
