My son and I took a visit to London last Saturday. All inspired by The Rake series. We sat and had a cigar at J J Fox and purchased several cigars. Also purchased from Davidoff, had a super lunch at Franco’s and visited Churchills War Rooms. I would highly recommend a visit. Thankyou Tom for your content. Keep it coming.
You missed out Floris, Paxton and Whitfield, and the arcades around! Cocktails at the American Bar at the Stafford.
@@user-tj2qm1sr2b there's still time. Budd Shirtmakers too.
You properly enjoyed your time here. Well done.
A very informative video. Brilliant
Coming soon again to the synagogue of satan tic toc
The Jewish Edict of Expulsion. On 18th July 1290, Edward I issued what came to be called the Jewish Edict of Expulsion. The same day that the Edict was proclaimed writs (letters) were sent to his sheriffs advising that all Jews in their counties had until 1st November to leave the realm.
These long format videos are god send
Indeed.
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC- I love all the Gentleman's London videos but this one was incredible. So many outstanding facts and stories. Thank you both so much.
That was hilarious and totally enjoyable. Extremely informative as well… butler, winechester, etc. I laughed myself silly. Thanks, boys. I almost forgot about the wake tables!
What a thoroughly likeable bloke, Mr Geordie Willis is.
I feel inspired to enquire about a case or two of 1963 Taylor's Port.
Another fantastic and amusing walk through history.
Been watching your episodes
Tom, and they are absolutly
fantastic. I mean it's just
London's finest. Britain at it's
best. Thanks for showing us.
My grandmother was a Berry. My late cousin told me that she was a member of the Berry family behind this famous merchant. Her name was Jessica Sophia and her father was Laurence Berry. She died in 1918 in a bombing raid on London. Living as I do, in Canada, my family history is sketchy, partly as a result of that bomb which nearly wiped out the family leaving only my father and two brothers as survivors. I have had no luck in verifying the connection. I have been to the shop on a few occasions.
Just loving this series
Yet another excellent production. Thank you.
A great episode, very informative. No pomposity, history as it is. Listening to an expert in any field is a rewarding experience. I often looked through the window of Berry Bros when working close by but never visited, my loss!
Fantastic episode. Best humor yet, especially the tables in Napoleon’s cellar.
History from the moment the bottle was opened and the bottle started to breathe.
Not for once was this almost an hour episode, boring. Wonderful tongue and cheek. Enormously educative.
Beautiful synergy between Tom Chamberlin, and Geordie Willis.
Love from Bangladesh 😊
I’ve been loving the Gentleman’s London series, and get a little endorphin buzz whenever I see a new one in my subs.
But this is my favourite one so far. I’ve walked by the shop before, but never stepped in.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. What a fascinating history that is Berry Bros. & Rudd. The coffee mill signage is a testimony of keeping with the origin of the company. This honors heritage and legacy. It adds value to the time-honored story of this family institution. I could easily spend the day soaking up the history and learning about the many wines and spirits. I would venture one would say they are not the best because they are the oldest, they are the oldest because they are the best! A national treasure.
Fantastic video. Excellent guest and impressive heritage. Very much appreciated and looking forward to the next one 🚀
Lovely video series! Thank you for making them so fun and informative! Well done!
My husband and I love this series. (My hubby has extensive experience in apparel manufacturing so he particularly liked the bespoke tailoring episodes.) Our love of the episodes inspired me to research who Tom Chamberlin is: a former member of the Drones Club perhaps???? Whereupon I found he is the EIC of The Rake magazine. So now I also am in love with reading The Rake! What ho!
fantastic series, loved the banter and the beautiful shop and heritage.
As always, another excellent video, and interview. Geordie Willis is absolutely full of knowledge, and had the perfect, and sometimes amusing reply to Tom's questions. His friendly attitude brought to mind the friendliness and approachability of Simon Berry. I was shocked that there was no mention of my favourite port from BBR, William Pickering Tawny. I have just sent an email to my contact at BBR, to pass on my regards to Mr Willis, for a wonderful interview.
I've only been to London four times (from San Antonio), but, I enjoy watching your videos to map out where to go when I get to go again!
Wonderful history lesson 🙏🏻
Couldn't even make it 2 minutes into the episode without hearing the word "pithy"....
Man this show is so British!! 💯😂🤣👌
I began watching this simply because I hope to visit Berry Bros & Rudd on my next trip to London, but what a fascinating and informative video. Cheers!! 👏👏👏
Great episode and great series. I enjoy the Rake keep it coming.
A beautiful history
8:57 Ha ha. The fight against entropy is strong in this one!
Will never be able to visit - but - this has been fascinating! Great Story Telling!
Excellent very interesting thanks 👏👏
Excellent Tom, learned a great deal with this episode. Well done.
What a wonderful video! I’ve worked in Mayfair and St James’s, most recently just before lockdown, and have always been fascinated by Berry Bros. & Rudd.
Interesting as always. Wine was made in Roman times in southern England and the Midlands BTW. The summer weather disappointment is simply that, that's what I've noticed in over 50 years.
Wonderful - thank you.
Love the dry humour! Thanks for a fascinating vidoe.
Superb , as ever.
Good history reminder as visited Berry Bros with my father in the 1970's and then myself in the 1980 & 90's for home and work cellars working in the city at Lloyd's of London😊.Don't remember the whisky though.
fantastic episode lads - thank god at last I have found something I can watch without feeling sick lol and BTW the table from Wales one put the coffin on was known as a 'refectory table' I do believe
So good thank you both 😊
When I worked round the corner back in the 70's Berry Bros was my local Off-License. Their house claret was a great buy and good value, built up a reasonable 'cellar'. Lent my flat to some friends for the Notting Hill Gate Carnival, and they drank the LOT.😪
Love this place. They helped me out many times when I wrote for lifestyle magazines. Brilliant.
In times of a fast changing world order it is quiet reassuring to have someone like Berry Brothers to secure and store rare wines and spirits. It's all about heritage and legacy I suppose.
Excellent, really enjoyed this episode.
enjoying this quite a bit, bravo well done.
Absolutely fantastic video! Well done 👏🏻
Great interview but would have been great to have had a thorough walkthrough of the offerings in the shop.
Brilliant!
Being a southerner I would love to see what the bourbon section looks like. Coincidentally, just considering having a Maker's Mark, or two, to cap off the day. Liked and subscribed.
As much as I like Mr . Chamberlin's work on the Rake I'd also enjoy more episodes of Alexander Kraft (and Birtie of course),he's one of the coolest dappers I've seen on the Rake (besides Tom).All the best gentlemen.
Incredible
Tom, congrats on your decision to not drink alcohol. I'm 77 and have never had a drink. Best decision I have ever made in my life. Keep the faith.
With respect, if you've never had a drink how would you know anything about it...?
A nice single malt whiskey, or cognac....on a winters evening in front of a log fire...perhaps smoking a cigar...is sublime. Drinking alcohol maturely, in moderation, does not lead to alcoholic mayhem.
Perhaps Tom had a problem with drinking to excess.
Again, with respect, your comment is meaningless.
@@dmyt-fr love that quote from the late great dean Martin
Drinking is only a problem if you actually acknowledge it. Like everything else in life keep an eye on it, but don’t worry about it.
A distilled perspective
This is a fun find channel 🎉
well, that was fun ..... sometimes rewardingly sec.
Little or no mention of cognac/brandy. Declining market?
They need to just buy up a whole lot of medium range vintages now, lock them away in cellarage, to sell in 200 years knowing that NOBODY will be alive to know that it was a medium range vintage would guarantee solvency for that future generation who run the shop.
As a traditionally trained saddler now making handmade leather goods....please complete this sentence using the words " Dunhill leather goods workshop " ( its in Walthamstow....). Pretty please...!!
Ooh Tom la₫die 😂 ya need a wee dram tae go wi yer cigar, come on Tom after yer coffee get stuck in and have a good dram😂 get the 🥃🥃🥃🥃 wee lips 👄round the glass and have a good drammy... C, món Tom you can do it...
How the hell do you function as a gentleman in London? It has become a cesspit since the early 00s.😂
That may be the case in parts, but the St James area is still very upmarket.
Your the second person I’ve seen today wearing your wrist watch on your right side
A gentleman's London, I'm confused? Would this Sadiq Khan's London, or a different one?
What age do you come from?
Napoleon 3 at 3 St James's Street
European colonial powers such as British established coffee plantations in their colonies, including Java, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. These plantations often relied on enslaved labor, exploitative conditions for indigenous workers. The economic benefits of coffee largely went to the colonizers, while the local populations suffered. This is the foundation of this establishment. He wouldn't dare mention this so i though i would :) (i am extremely anti "woke" culture but what happened to those people was nothing short of horrific)
Oh give it a rest, do.
You could say that about the foundations of ANYTHING and EVERONE in modern society , it’s unfortunate but we try to evolve , just enjoy the video with these two great guys !
Oh dear
Just need to use a tie clip to keep both parts together sorry
Tom, your jackets look so nice, but your trousers look so narrow and unflattering. Perhaps invest in some fuller trousers to match your imposing chest?
WARNING - INTELLEGENT PROGRAMME ALERT!
How can you be so fat if you don't imbibe residual sugar?
I'm curious why the "Rake" chooses to dress like he's auditioning for the circus?
Soon this will be described as far right.
Do shut up. Absolutely no one gives a fuck, respectfully.
Please sometime try to keep your mouth shot, let the experts to explain and from their knowledge.
It is a shared space. There are much worse out there.
You're not funny
XTREME!
@@joedirt3449 and you are????????????

The Kings Ginger ??? Surely the Prince Henry?………🤣🤣🤣
SURLEY NOT ! AS HENRY (HARRY) IS THE BASTARD OF DIANA AND HER STABLEMASTER
Mingey 😂
@@joedirt3449 FUNNY ISN´T IT ?! WHEN EVERYBODY KNOWS HENRY IS THE BASTARD OF DIANA AND HER STABLEMASTER !
Surprised no one has challenged the origin of the name Winchester. Seems not to be related to wine. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winchester
