A Gentleman's London, Episode Nine: Davidoff of London

Edward is a great Gentleman of the old school. The great host. I used to go visit him at least once a week back in the mid 1980’s. Used to go across the street and have an espresso with my Havana Montecristo next to Edward’s superb vintage Mercedes convertible where he used to park. Decades later I would return to him with my son and he actually remembered me. Used to smoke the Havana Davidoff’s back in the day when they still made them. Brilliant shop, Brilliant Gentleman.

"Tobacco should not be indulged in, unless it is a cigar", what a good way to communicate your love of cigar!

Eddie’s voice on a scale of 1 to 10 has an ASMR value of 11!

I first saw Eddie on Kirby Alison’s channel. He is one of those gents that I could listen to for hours. He comes across as a delight to be around

Eddie opened the door for me as I left his shop. Never felt so special!

Listening to Eddie is always a pleasure 💨 🤝

Makes my day every time The Rake posts a video.

Eddie is invariably charming and delightful. Just a splendid individual.

Will watch this whilst enjoying a Davidoff No2. Excellent

Eddie and Edward seem like down to earth great guys and true gentleman. Always so enjoyable watching their videos.

I remember around 30 years ago, working in the humidor of another tobacconist on another corner of Jermyn St. Every morning I'd walk past Edward & Eddie sitting outside Francos having a smoke. I'd go and see Bruno for tea & toast, and always get a 'good morning' was a great time to be the 3rd Edward in Jermyn street.

Mr Chamberlain.... What a simply sensational interview and Documentary... Thank you Sirs....

Eddie is just pure class! I met him about 2 months ago and he is even better in person! Much love from Norway 🍸

Oh the unending joys of Jermyn Street! A haircut, a new shirt and tie, some pipe tobacco and finally a look around Davidoff on the corner. I wasn't averse to a tin of the latest blend of pipe tobacco from Dunhill as I had yet to graduate to cigar chicanery. My last visit to this wonderful emporium was ~ forgive me ~ in a desperate search for my favourite cigarettes which had just stopped being imported from Denmark. Of course Davidoff obliged but I was told that I had just been sold the last packet of Prince in the country. One more memory evoked by your latest production: There is no better cigar to smoke than one from here on one's boat on the Thames on a balmy summer eve, given by one's barrister neighbour on the occasion of the birth of his first daughter!

Edward is a Mans Man! A true Gentleman at the highest of levels! Genuinely himself, a humble great person!

WAS WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO!!! Gotta love The Sahakians

the best cigar shop in the world.Eddie and Edward are such fine gentlemen and welcome you with open arms.

I don’t smoke, but some of my fondest family memories revolve around tobacco. I dearly miss buying custom medley boxes of cigars and pipe tobacco for my father. He anxiously waited for his gift every time I booked my tickets to go home.

Wonderful episode. Childhood memories of cigar aroma in our home.

One of the most incredible videos I’ve watched on YouTube so far, thank you very much 🙏🙂
