- In the grand finale of our extraordinary series documenting Kirby surprising his good friend Eddie Sahakian of Davidoff of London with his first “pure bespoke” suit from Savile Row tailoring house Henry Poole, we find ourselves in the heart of luxury and elegance-the Edward Sahakian Cigar Shop and Sampling Lounge at the Bulgari Hotel London. Eddie Sahakian graciously invites Kirby Allison and Simon Cundey to join him in a ceremonial "christening" of his very first 'Pure Bespoke' suit over a fine cigar.
From our initial surprise for Eddie at Henry Poole, to the meticulous fittings, this journey has been a celebration of quality, craftsmanship, tradition, and, most importantly, friendship. Every stitch and every detail have been carefully orchestrated, embodying the highest principles of 'Pure Bespoke' tailoring.
Today, we reach the pinnacle of this sartorial expedition. Surrounded by an exquisite selection of cigars and a setting that only amplifies the grandeur of this moment, we commemorate not just the completion of a bespoke suit, but a shared passion for quality and tradition. Join us as Simon gives his final blessings, ensuring every detail of Eddie's suit is nothing less than perfect, and as we all indulge in a cigar to celebrate this monumental occasion.
Don't miss this unforgettable episode, where every element that makes 'Pure Bespoke' a timeless art form is honored and where friendships are celebrated in the most elegantly fashioned way possible.

Eddie is radiating with confidence after that Henry & Poole bespoke suit! I love it! What a moment!
Indeed!!!
And he is back in his own territory
Eddie is confidence, personified. 👑
Apologies the Tailor is called Henry Poole & Company, not Henry & Poole.
Amazing suit
Eddie is such a class act. I'm happy for him to have this beautiful suit.
I just love how everyone is allowed to speak, and finish what they are saying. I hate how in usual conversation people are simply waiting for their turn to speak instead of listening, and almost always cannot resist the urge to butt in. So refreshing to listen to a conversation had in the proper way.
I don't know what people you are referring to but the way these gentlemen handled the conversation should be/ is standard etiquette.
@@Kenny-yl9pc Good lord, I'd love to spend time around the people you converse with daily in that case!
Not saying everybody is like that, I know there are many people like you described, I was thinking about my friends and how we converse with each other and as far as I remember it is always cordial and respectful. We try to listen and wait until one finishes his thought. @@lharmy
I don't want to come across as a sexist or anything like that, because I am not certainly not. But I was merely wondering whether you are a woman, because I observed something like you described with women at least such as I remember, they had the habit of getting their thought out even if it's completely unrelated or when someone is still speaking. But I don't know. @@lharmy
Eddie: I'm incredibly delighted to be here. Kirby: No no, I'm far more incredibly delighted to be here. Henry: No no no, I most incredibly delighted to be here. Kirby: but I really really super am most supremely delighted to be here. Camera guy: Ok that's over 4 minutes of this, yes we are all delighted to be here, can we get some smoke action now?
"you can afford to wear quality, if you know how to take care of it" - Kirby Allison
So true.
Eddie’s suits absolutely fantastic. Simon and his team did a marvellous job. Once again Kirby you’ve outdone yourself with the quality content. If I could give you 100 likes I would.
I just love when Eddie says "My dear Kirby..." the bromance is so strong. What a great journey this has been. Eddie looking like a million punds sterling.
Three World Class Gentlemen. Beautiful suits, fantastic cigars, and the great art of conversation. Thank you Kirby
I really love Eddie. He is such a classic gentleman...elegance, exquisite manners, humility, and class.
I could listen to Eddie's cigar etiquette instructions all day. I was keeping an eye out for the new watch strap but couldn't tell if you were wearing it. Great video Kirby, many thanks.
Always enjoy when Eddie says My Dear Kirby lol
Wow. Even on camera you can tell the quality of the fabric Eddie is wearing
That suit is absolutely stunning.
He looks brilliantly smart in the suit. Fantastic.
I’m still waiting for one day that Eddie says “May I smoke it for you”
This day will come, and we will all rejoice! 😂
Basking in the glow of excellence. Thanks Kirby. Eddie's cigar acumen is second to none.
Kirby, you have time & time again knocked these videos out of the park. Two true students/experts of their respective games. We're all so lucky to get to witness 3 gentlemen enjoy cigars with even greater conversation. Great work!
Eddie in a bespoke Poole suit, and wearing a Moon Swatch Speedmaster. Pure class.
The moonswatch does not belong to the "pure class" range...
Just stopped by Henry Poole today for the first time. Not quite ready for a full bespoke suit, but was pleased to buy a tie from Simon. Incredible experience and excited to return.
I always look forward to your videos and especially with the Sahakians. Thank you, Kirby. Can't wait for the Cuba series!
Eddie is a joy to listen to and watch. His elegance and charisma captures the room. Poole is a class act all its own. Craftsmanship and dedication. Cheers!
Simon is a national treasure -Kirby and Eddie ain’t too far behind. What a lovely video!
Eddie is such a gentleman. An ideal all of us should strive towards. "Everyone's pallet is an expert". My God what a thing to say. Hats off to you sir.
I wish I didn't have anger issues so I could be as smooth as Eddie.
Speaking as an uncivilized barbarian myself (as someone preparing for a worsening future), I can still drop in on these types of gentlemen, and be just as smooth. It's definitely something to aspire to.
Ahh good form! Well done gentlemen, well done indeed. What an amazing journey it has been to watch these three gentlemen provide a peek into this world of bespoke products.
I say I wish for nothing more than for the culture of the world to return to such amazing, well thought out dialogue, and complimentary interaction.
It was so interesting to hear Eddie speak of the hesitation that can present itself when one considers entering Henry Poole, or any establishment with such provenance. I was just in London last week and actually walked by Henry Poole thanks to Kirby’s videos. I must say that I wanted nothing more than to walk through that door and begin that journey, but the nerves do absolutely get the best of you. I consider myself to be quite accomplished, ex military, Ivy League educated and the like, but even so, I felt what Eddy referred to as “imposter syndrome”. I don’t think that anyone who truly respects the trade and the legacy of such an institution can ever be 100% at ease at the idea of engaging with it. It means just that much to society.
The suit looks incredible! You can see it in Eddies posture, even while seated, in his shoulders and midsection particularly - how it brings out his broadness and stature. He looks so comfortable, so well put together. Truly “that guy” as we say. Well done gentlemen. It’s been a true pleasure. Boola Boola!
A masterpiece ! Thank you Kirby !
I feel privileged to have seen Eddie receive such a wonderful bespoke suit. As with everything he does it was pure class and pleasure. I hope that for decades to come he enjoys thousands of cigars in the beautiful suit.
Admiration and pride from Canada.
A most enjoyable half hour watching these fine gentlemen in conversation, would love to see more.
"Lends itself to the dimensions and proportions" - I like it, and I intend to use it more often in conversation. 😂 Thank you, Eddie!
What a wonderful way to celebrate Eddie's first bespoke suit. He seems like such a wonderful guy. I'd love to enjoy a nice cigar with him one day, and you as well Kirby.
What a caliber of gentlemen!! Thank you Kirby!!!
What can I say, such a great ending to a high quality experience & I felt like I was there as well.
Thank you Kirby
I think the best part of all this, is the quality of production of these videos. Kirby Allison can make a sad rainy day look like a joy
3 amazing and elegant gentlemen
Kirby, you've done it again. Yet another fantastic video. Eddie looks like a million bucks and listening to you 3 gents conversing is an absolute joy!
I’d just like to say how nice it was to sit and enjoy that conversation you all had. I’m very jealous of you enjoying those cigars.
Kirby Allison is one of the magicians of keeping the conversation interesting.
I thought Kirby and Eddie were the epitome of sophistication but Simon takes that to a whole different level in his pinstripe attire.
Congratulations Eddie! You look smashing! Bravo Simon and your staff and of course Kirby for such a generous gift 🎁. Kind regards from Milano Italy 🇮🇹 SF.
Eddie just shows the right amount of confidence back in his own territory.
So much kindness, politness and positive attention to others. I'm not sure i know enough different ways of saying welcome or thank you to sit there with them 😄
The positivity, respect for one another and friendship is infectious. It doesn’t matter what in life you are passionate about, but having the space and tradition to explore it is to be admired. Well done Kirby for bringing this to us
Boy that lapel roll is so astonishing
Simon just looks so good in that suit with his cigar 👌🏻
Excellent video Kirby. How can one not enjoy an intelligent conversation over great cigars.
Splendid video and series. Well done. Simon , it’s a lovely suit. Cheers gentlemen. Special note to Eddie for his gracious nature, truly impressive.
Pure class, gents!
Man, Eddie is 🔥🔥🔥. What a true Gentleman
A lovely series. It is as much about the arts of friendship and conversation as suits and cigars.
I’ve never smoked a day in my life but I’d happily take up smoking cigars to listen to Eddies insight on the matter. Nothing better than learning from the best. Hope you enjoyed christening your new suit Eddie
A fitting conclusion to this superb series. It's been a great ride, and the suit looks terrific! I got a little worried in the previous instalment as Eddie did,'t show any shirt cuff. Was the shirtsleeves too short, or the jacket's sleeves too long? I shouldn't have worried, here it all looks perfect! It was probably only the shirtsleeves being pushed up during the fitting.
And I love the civilised conversation, makes you realy want be part of it.
Well done Kirby, another winner. And, only 2k subscribers away from 700,000! I sense another black tie livestream coming up!!!
I like a particular gentleness and soft pace of conversation, even the actions taken, the choice of words and "Let the world await" mentality that's filled the room. 15:50
Love these elegant, gentlemanly videos. Almost makes me want to grab a smoke out of my portable humidor and join them!
It is upon me to express my amazement at the sight of Eddie's new suit. Truly a great insight into the quality and craftsmanship that went into achieving the perfect color and fit.
Eddie has the best cigars in the world in his pocket and treats it as an experience every day.
It's so nice to watch this video at home, while smoking a nice cigar, having some coffee or whisky!
Absolutely brilliant Eddie. I was almost in tears when the jacket came on. Looks as if that moment filled your heart and mind... it did for me. Cheers Mate.
Quality suit with quality men what an honour to watch these fine gentleman
Really have to say, Kirby, well done. You've performed a real service here for craftsmanship and the artisanal touch. Wonderfully charming, really. You're all fine gentlemen and a gesture to the elegance, decorum and humility that helps make the world a more agreeable and interesting experience. More power to you.
Smoking a cigar while watching you and Eddie is quickly becoming one of my favorite activities. Now smoking a Quai d’Orsay 54. Delightful
My god, what a beautiful result. Craftsmanship to admire!
Wish I was blessed with friends like you three gentlemen.
After stopping smoking cigarettes 10yrs ago, every time I watch Kirby and his friends enjoying a cigar, I just want to give it a go.....
It’s certainly not addicting like cigarettes. Of course nicotine can be addicting, but the ability to pull a cigar out of your pocket for a quick smoke doesn’t exist in the cigar world. It’s sitting for an hour plus, enjoying the moment with friends and family.
@@Jeff_Rey thanks for the reply, in fact I've just told the wife "I'll be having a cigar this Christmas." Have know Idea which one? but going to find the time to enjoy...
@@andrewg9236I would Recommend Davidoff Churchill Belicoso cigars. It was my first cigar and got me into the hobby. I smoke once or twice a year to mark an occasion with something special.
Kirby, your cinematography 🤌🏽 simply brilliant. I enjoy watching and enjoying a smoke right along with you gentlemen. Hats off to ya, glad your a fella native 👍🏼
Theres no way these guys converse like this off camera
I have to say my bucket list now includes a bespoke suit from Henry Poole - I don't own any suits, never really had an interest in having one, but Kirby, your fine taste has rubbed off on me and now I must have one! Someday.... :) Also, I need to find a cigar lounge in my city (Phoenix, AZ), because that is also something I want to do now.
Go to Fox Cigar Bar in old town Scottsdale.
Or if you find yourself down south go to Puro in Chandler.
These I have found to be two of the best with great atmosphere and selections of cigars and spirits.
Also, Castros in south west Tempe; very good.
Absolutely incredible series. Inspirational
i cant believe how much i love this
one of my favorite videos of some of the worlds finest
BEST SERIES YET 👏 👌 ❤😊
Exceptional episode thank you Mr Alison.
Kriby trying to fit in, in all his video, is what brings me back.
Its hilarious the way hes sitting like a dainty well mannered young lady, while both of the other men sit like they actually have testicles
How unPROPER of you 😂@@silentsir2446
Just an incredible video, Kirby. Great stuff!
You're description of how you portrait your work, while simultaneously representing the ethics of your business is something I can only hope to replicate on a much smaller scale. Absolutely amazing channel, I wish you and yours the best.
Sincerely,
One of your million fans
-All of us
Great video and amazing to hear from two titans 👏
Another wonderful video. Enjoying it while lighting a Ramon Allones after a day of hunting fossils with my sons at the grey, dramatic and rain-whipped coast line.
That is a suit for sure. And Kirby gets the old school perfecto cigar. Eddie knows Kirby well.
Fantastic video gentlemen, thank you.
Such gentlemen.
this has reminded me good old times, thank you for the video
I hope to one day have the class and elegance these gentlemen possess. I would love to have the blessing to visit a lounge such as the Sahakian lounge at the Bulgari Hotel in London!
When I saw him choosing the grey material I have to say I was disappointed. I am bewildered by the imense beauty that it turned out to be. You look dashing Eddie, one of many I hope!
Love this channel...great video. Excellent demonstration on how gentlemen interact.
Eddie's suit is beautiful. The fit and fabric are exceptional.
It's almost as good as his knowledge of Cigars ;)
Another wonderful video!
Class acts I thought "Class" was a forgotten art happy to see there's still hope...
Eddie is so good at explaining the cutting and lighting experience / process.
That suit is awesome!
Loved this series, 3 absolute gentlemen enjoying fine cloth and fine cigars. It has almost satiated my desire for your Cuba series, almost! Cannot wait for that one! Thank you Kirby, you're a class act!
See how well Eddie makes that suit look, makes me want to venture to get my own Bespoke suit👌🏻
Simply perfect
aww it’s somehow nice to realize that Eddie, an expert in one sort of fancy, also feels impostor syndrome.
Enjoyed being a fly on the wall. Next time lets pair a libation with the smoke 😊
Love your matching Moon Swatch, Eddie!
Dominican #2 ❤ 🇩🇴
What an awesome video. I would love to get my own bespoke suit in a couple of years.
That suit is a second skin fit for sure. But Eddie sells the look like a boss too. Suit makes the man and man makes the suit!
Amazing video
It's a lovely suit. I especially like the roped shoulders and the lapels. The way the waistcoat is bunching up, while Eddie is sitting, would drive me nuts. Great series, thank you for sharing.
Wonderful video!
The year of the rabbit is one of my favourite cigars 👌
