Jambox is a name that conjures up images of certain people. An almost religious group who live in faraway places, smoking wacky baccy, wearing ridiculous clothes and strange hats, having odd hairstyles, talking in funny accents, believing in outlandish things, criticising the rest of society for being too corporate and saying ‘jah’ a lot. Yes,
Directed by Woody Allen, with a cast including Cate Blanchett and Alec Baldwin, Blue Jasmine is certainly a comedy-drama worth watching. Woody Allen has returned once again with this latest film and skilfully manages to exceed all expectations. He has brought the best out of his actors with a heartwarming performance from Cate who continues
Tequila, or “vodka with soul” as certain connoisseurs and stylish individuals now refer to it. This seriously under-appreciated Mexican icon is experiencing a rebirth as the ultra-premium spirit of choice. With a history like Casa Herradura’s, you know they’re getting it right. 100% naturally fermented agave. 100% hacienda made since 1870, it’s no wonder they’ve made
If there’s one thing we can embrace about the onset of the winter chill it’s loading on the layers and bulking up a bit with some knitwear. If you are going for a dressed-down vintage look then by all means pull out last year’s moth-eaten collection. Personally, we don’t recommend it. You’ll look more Fishermen’s
Quintessentially do a lot of things, all of them excellently. So it’s no surprise their annual poker tournament raised huge amounts for charity.
This game will ruin your social life. Playing Total War makes any man feel like a Ceasar as you see the map becoming more and more Roman…
A new film looks at the assassination of JFK from the point of view of those around on that fateful day, particularly the doctors and nurses at Parkland hospital.
What good is a yacht if you don’t have anything fun to play with on it? From diving boards to submarines, we present the ultimate add-ons to the ultimate form of transportation.
Gin has been causing something of a stir recently, thanks to the birth of pioneering craft distilleries dedicated to producing high-quality, refined spirits (far from the bathtub gins of the 18th Century). Their secret to success is using traditional, artisan methods, lovingly distilling in small batches with copper stills. The copper reacts with the alcohol
Each week TSL give us their top picks for what to do in London. This week we’ve got live jazz, Independent cafes, a 1920s cocktail bar in East London, live cinema and a great Men’s clothing boutique. An Evening of Live Jazz Archie Shepp. Barbican Get your tickets now for the 24th November, as
Autumn is a time for chunky knitwear, beautifully made trench coats and smart leather gloves. A time when quintessential British style really comes out to play, this said, however, sometime it can be a little hard to stand out from the crowd. Not that we here at the gentleman’s journal condone peacocking in anyway (we
This is the perfect starter after a long day on the hill – maybe you will be lucky enough to be invited to a shooting party or weekend where it is being served. It’s really quick and easy to prepare in advance (start it the night before) and takes exactly half an hour to cook.
This stunning residential property in Dalston is the result of 32-year-old architect Paresh Chandegra’s experimentation with what he described as a total “blank canvas”. When he purchased the property on Buckingham Road it was a derelict house in a state of disrepair – completely masked by overgrown vegetation, but you certainly wouldn’t guess that now.
You never would have thought that the Plum & Spilt Milk was located next to King’s Cross St Pancras station when entering the restaurant at the Great Northern Hotel. You are immediately transported from one of London’s newest public squares to an atmospheric bar that oozes with style and romance. We ascended up the elegant,

Written by Sylvester Stallone, starring Jason Statham, James Franco and Kate
Wine, for TGJ’s money, is the worst hangover creator of all time. The British Medical Association may say whiskey but they clearly drank too little wine when testing. They also did not factor in one crucial thing: availability. Unless you are a grade A, DEFCON 1 alcoholic (in which case congratulations for reading this far
There’s nothing better than a home-brewed pint of beer in a local village pub. Raise your tankards if you agree! What would you say to a home-brewed beer drunk in the comfort of your own home? Impossible! Say hello to the latest beer savvy robots that can make this vision a reality. If, like us,
Last night the iconic No 1 Savile Row was teeming with a host of dapper gentleman and glamorous girls alike, who had all come to celebrate The Gentleman’s Journal Autumn issue launch party.
