I didn't know what I was drinking. A wonderfully energetic barmaid poured me a jigger of American Ramrod Gin and asked me what my first thoughts were. After a moment of reflection, I replied that it reminded me of a sun-filled baseball game in 1977, when Rod Carew was batting .400 and the man behind me was belching salted peanuts hand Hamm's beer. O the memories. Well done you distillers of ancient spirits.
James May- love your gin! Got the Asian parsnip and the American “ramstud”. Thought both were super interesting flavors and wonderful, high quality gins. I can tell a lot of care and thought went into the flavor and making of these spirits. I’ve been sipping these, and made martinis and gin and tonics and can say the unique flavors really added a lot to the experience of these beverages. I shall definitely be ordering more in the future! Look forward to your future endeavors! Cheers from the United States!
Clarkson grows the parsnips on his farm, Hammond restores a pick-up truck to transport them James uses Clarkson’s parsnips in his gin distillery and then sells it in his pub!
I wonder what would happen if he blended all 5 gins with the more he liked the gein the more is added, and the least favorite verison has the least amount added?
After he was describing the blue gin I knew immediately he was going to choose it solely because how much he talking about all the different notes of flavor he got from drinking it.
"And Now For Something A Little Bit Different." Bought an interesting made-in-Quebec alcohol-free Gin last Christmas. I prefer Gin's fragrance to its taste.
Without tasting it to me it seems like blue is the right choice James, as parsnip has a slight perfumed flavour along with it earthy sweetness, and the green cardamom is also slightly perfumed so I think would compliment the flavour well, glad I've ordered a bottle now, thanks James.
James has the gift to make everything he talks about extremely interesting. I wish that he was in all of the FoodTribe videos, the other people on the channel make everything look like a cheesy infomercial.
Gin is my favy favorite...SO IS JAMES. I imagine his Gin Torroir to evoke notes of petrol, intelligence, floral, juniper and hints of citrus. Oh my gosh I want to try it so badly~
He may just be. And if not *the most interesting*, certainly in the top 5. He also seems like a genuinely amenable, if wonderfully sardonic, guy who just wants to nerd out about things and share knowledge.
I have ordered a bottle and looking forward to tasting it. I have always loved gin and like the idea of an Asian flavour. I’m trying to renegotiate delivery off it though since I will be away on holiday when it is supposed to be delivered. Anyway, looking forward to trying it. Can’t wait.
I knew that you'd pick blue the moment you said that it had a definitive "Asian" quality. Like you said, it's a very broad term but from a marketing standpoint, if an average joe is picking up Asian Parsnip Gin and doesn't get a distinctive Asian based flavor, it'll probably be a bit of a miss. Definitely feels like that one ticked exactly what you were thinking of right away.
@@_Rich_. Except this is exactly how you make this kind of decision. They make a bunch of samples and you taste them to find out which you like best. There is no reason for this to have been "staged".
I have expressed my interest in your Gin sir. I hope I can order it for a shipment to the sunny state of Florida... where there is a usually large amount of British Ex-pats here.
James please make this available for Germany for the next christmas! My husband and my best friend both also love your content, they however dont drink alcohol. Regardless, id love to buy myself a bottle as a christmas gift this year! Maybe a bottle for my dad and mom, if shipping to Hungary also becomes available!
While I'd love to buy some Asian Parsnip Gin, a criticism I'd give to James would be on whoever tf designed the label for the bottle. It looks like surgical sanitizer. You look at your alcohol bottle more than you drink it, so it is essential it looks presentable. This one just looks like a big bottle of isopropyl alcohol.
I will absolutely buy a bottle of Asian Parsnip, Dr. Bim. If by crazy chance you happen to hear about this comment, I would recommend you try Cap Rock gin, distilled in Colorado I believe. Another very different take on the spirit.
Legend has it that if you put a few mils of this in your differential it will magically simultaneously reduce your final drive torque AND your mechanically limited top speed.
Assuming you were talking about the picture with Stalin and a different politician next to a canal (at 7:47), that would be Nikolai Yezhov who disappeared, not Trotsky.
We’re attempting an export version, but it’s complicated.
Would be greatly appreciated here in Australia :)
When do you expect the first UK shipments to be shipped?
Nooice
Do it illegally James, it's much easier.

I heard Hammond is releasing his own line of hair coloring.
He's looking a bit like Paul Chuckle these days.
And teeth whiteners

50 shades of grey?
and perhaps a teeth whitening system as well...
James May looking healthier since drinking gin
You mean the GIN BLOSSOM?
I guess he at least has some colour now, even if it's red!
It's the result of cycling, not gin.

Same. Torille sitten kun korona helpottaa!
It's such and odd but specific thing and I knew exactly what he meant
Too bad the gin is shipped only in UK.
Also, James must invite Oz Clark to try his gin. It would be a great reunion of those two
Oz & James visit Diddly Squat
Dang:(
Oz is 72 now 0_0
I would love to see him and Oz again. They had a fantastic dynamic.
Hammonds getting uncomfortable in his trousers
Aren't hamsters eternally restless?
Why? Is he making some gin as well?

That's okay, paramedics will cut them off for him soon enough.
On tonights episode. Jeremy plants cardamom. James learns the opposite of inclusive. And Richard sips some gin.
And the stig does a skid in a supercharged jaaag
Just make another Oz and James drinking already, this is already so close lol

man of the earth... James May is probably the most reasonable (in my mind) of the three. Love the man, myth, the legend.
He is A very cool man indeed 👍
We need a segment of James just describing various orders and flavours
James is looking really healthy I love to see it
meanwhile Jeremy looks like a stale big mac that's got squashed down the back of a Ford Mondeo's seat.

I saw something somewhere that said you should’ve called “Hey Gin!” And I wholeheartedly agree with that
Captain Sloe is a real missed opportunity

Hammond is going to be very happy soon.
No doubt lol
He loves gin, doesn't he? Although I'm not sure he'd be happy with acknowledging James' hardwork, lol.
I think he’ll be happy with Brummies ruin.
Hammond doesn't like the taste of asian spices.

The "link" edit was gold
tonight on gear:
Hammond sell some car
James taste some of his own gin
and I want to be a millionaire
Taste like exhoost fyoom. Er' noice!
And I sell some potatoes to some angry locals.
Clarkson grows the parsnips on his farm, Hammond restores a pick-up truck to transport them
James uses Clarkson’s parsnips in his gin distillery and then sells it in his pub!
Correction: Hammond *CRASHES* a Morgan
I wonder what would happen if he blended all 5 gins with the more he liked the gein the more is added, and the least favorite verison has the least amount added?
If the gin does well, you could always do limited edition Experimental Gins and give the losing gins a chance to reclaim their spot in history.
The webpage is absolutely fabulous, the obligatory bonus video at the bottom just wraps it all up, I love it to bits
10/10 for the editor following James' reactions
Without doubt the best, most entertaining, and funniest presenter of Top Gear / Drivetribe.
Grown by Jeremy, manufactured by James, drank by Richard

Where is Oz Clarke? I would love to hear his thoughts on this.
One of the best tastings I've ever attended to 😅 Brilliant work from both of you 👍🏼
You are such a great man. been following you since ever, now love your current "evolution". A toast to you, James May! Cheers from Italy! :)
You must love this guy!
As I watched this, I thought he sounds like Oz Clark...then he mentioned Oz..I laughed at that!
"This tastes like a barroom table"
"Funny you should mention that, because that's exactly what we put in it!"

I'm so glad he put in tonic! I was s screaming that the experience will change with carbonation.
Gin is my favy favorite...SO IS JAMES.
I imagine his Gin Torroir to evoke notes of petrol, intelligence, floral, juniper and hints of citrus.
Oh my gosh I want to try it so badly~
Loving this new venture. Please export to the States! Looking forward to a refined blokes drink.
James bouncing in excited anticipation is baby and my new favorite thing

Am I the only one who thinks James May is the most interesting man in UA-cam.
Um...err... yes?
No
yep. heis very entertaining but the most interesting? no.
He may just be. And if not *the most interesting*, certainly in the top 5. He also seems like a genuinely amenable, if wonderfully sardonic, guy who just wants to nerd out about things and share knowledge.
James and ghost town living are the only UA-cam channels I need 😍
Any chance we could buy this in the states, mate? Major craft gin fan here.
yeah i want some
If you go to the site and then to Shipping Policy, there's an email address where you can register your interest in an international version.
He’s almost certainly going to roll this out to the US.

I was lucky enough to buy one of the first batch. Really looking forward to tasting it!!
I liked it when Old Top Gear & The Grand Tour fans did watch Oz & James as well
This could be a new covid test.
"What bottanicals can you smell" 😂
Star anise gin actually sounds AMAZING. Shoot, I might even try to make my own gin.
Yeah i wish i could try one of your bottles (sadly no shipping outside of UK, even though it would be only to Czech Republic).
8:04 perfect for hammond!

Did u get the parsnip gin
Let those of us outside the UK buy this! :P
love the editing
'Thats my toast hand.'
10 minutes of James inane babble..... now totally worthwhile.
I cant believe we have a video of James May tasting alcohol, and Oz Clarke is nowhere to be seen.
You need to have a episode where with him too.
Congrats on the new gin , look forward to tasting it .... as long as it reasonably priced, just checked 40 quids a bit steep, will have to save up ;)
I like how the age verification popup, on the James Gin website, starts at the year 1113

@@Kronos0999 that is very true, it does look like a medicine bottle from the 70's
Going to buy some after the next Blitz when things are back to normal on the northwestern German islands formerly known as Britain.

It's almost like they get in a better and better mood as the video progresses

and hammond will release his own line of cornflakes

Got some the other day on order. I'm going to fill the cowling on my glass. Cheers James clink clink.
I swear James May was the lead singer for Led Zeppelin in a prior life.
I'm Asian and I need this gin. Galangal is interesting to add into gin as it's mostly used in curries where I am.
Other countries want to buy it too!
James give Oz a call new series would be amazing 🍻🍸🍻🍸

Legend has it that if you put a few mils of this in your differential it will magically simultaneously reduce your final drive torque AND your mechanically limited top speed.
Let us know when available in the US! Website said shipping to NY not available but we would love to try some!
Really wish I could by this from the US.
Having rekindled my interest in gin during lockdown, these videos are killing me since I can't get any of this gin in the USA 😩
If you could ship this to Bulgaria, I can get it into many bars and restaurants on the black sea coast. Can't wait to try it.
I hope this comes to Finland some day too
Just bought a bottle. Fingers crossed I like it for the price. :D
I didn't see an option for shipping to USA, any chance of international shipping?
Or did I miss it in the check out screen?
congratulations!
Would Love to try it... Will it be available to EU-countries in the future?
James, what are you making your ethanol base from? Grains, sugar, spuds?
I would love to do something like this
Try a small still from eBay, it’s quite easy.
I thought he wood say "so ginny", like in an Oz Clarke episode😁😁
))))))))
“Tastes of Gin”
Only available in the UK? Too bad. Would love to buy this in the Netherlands :)
The Gin only ships to the UK! :(
I was keen to try it out.
Make it available to order the Gin from outside the UK please
Add Australia to the wish list of shipping, even though I live in the cradle of award-winning gin (South Australia).
I am so sad I can't get this in the States. I want James' Gin!
I tried to find out what shipping to Australia would cost, however they don't ship to Australia.
Jeremy and Richard taste test on James’ Gin, please.
Smells like "old wooden pub table that's been in strong sunshine"
Its quite funny the way he describes smells and they kinda make sense lol
I would like to buy the gin but I live in Switzerland. Hope it will soon be shipped in Europe or worldwide
Blue is the right choice because it's closest to the original idea
Assuming you were talking about the picture with Stalin and a different politician next to a canal (at 7:47), that would be Nikolai Yezhov who disappeared, not Trotsky.
Thanks.
I know like 100 people in the US who would want this. I tried to buy some myself. Please release it here
Mine turned up today. Haven't tried it yet.
I'm _not_ a fan of gin. But if James says they're not like the gin you'd expect, I think I might try one.
