The storefront at number three St James's Street is distinguished by a weathered sign of a coffee mill hanging above the entrance, a quiet link to its origins as a grocer’s shop founded in sixteen ninety-eight. Known today as Britain’s oldest wine and spirits merchant, the business was established by a woman known only as the Widow Bourne. She chose this specific location to be near the primary residence of the monarch at St James's Palace, catering to a wealthy, royal clientele that has patronized the firm for over three centuries.
