Bourbon Drinks You'll Love (7 Classic Cocktails You Can’t Go Wrong With)

The past few weeks I've been blessed to have time off from my usual vocation allowing me more time for my avocation: drinking, I’m still thinking about bourbon.

I’d written last time that bourbon was America’s one truly unique offering to the world of spirits so it makes sense to explore more in depth the brief story of the cocktail and how they almost uniquely derive from America’s unique liquor.

Bourbon is a favorite among many who like to drink spirits and so this in-depth guide is intended to highlight the “best of the best” bourbon cocktails (along with recipes), whether for its place in history, taste, prestige, versatility or overall delight it brings. This roundup is intended to show that there’s drink for every whiskey lover.

Let's dive in.

10 Reasons to Dress Like You Give a Damn

10 Reasons to Dress Like You Give a Damn

What you choose to wear is just as important as what you choose to say, whether in a social setting or coordinating a plan for that next big date. Realizing the power in dressing well and taking action to become a well dressed man will serve you favorably in so many areas of your life.

Perhaps you’ve already achieved the romance holy grail of starting a text conversation with a girl. Better yet, your ability to woo the ladies with your wizarding words may even be effortless. But have you ever thought about your personal style and the story you tell with your clothing? It’s a whole different ballgame.

And when I say “dress well,” I don’t mean dressed to the nines in a suit and tie. Though I won’t stop you from suiting up, what I mean is to dress appropriately; appropriately for the occasion and appropriately for your age. You also want to dress comfortably, in a way that makes you feel like the best version of yourself.

Why is this important?

Well, let’s dive in on 10 Reasons To Dress Like You Give a Damn.

How to Make a Great First Impression (So They Will Remember You)

How to Make a Great First Impression (So They Will Remember You)

Did you know that when meeting someone for the first time, the first 30 seconds will determine whether you impress them or not? In fact, some scientists would even argue that within 7 seconds, someone will have already made a conclusion about you in their mind.

This suggests that you only get one shot at first impressions. Whether you're on a date, at work, an interview, school, or meeting new friends, you need to be able to make a good impression immediately to establish successful relationships.

Before diving into the how, let's first understand what first impressions are all about. It is the initial perception another person will have towards you based on your appearance, personality, style, and physical attributes.

Meeting new people can be a challenging and daunting experience, especially if one is an introvert. However, the ability to make a good impression is a vital skill that you need to possess because it can make or break your opportunities in life.

10 Gym Essentials to Boost Your Workout and Look Good

10 Gym Essentials to Boost Your Workout and Look Good

If you’re anything like me, you’ve been working out in the same getup for years. Baggy t-shirt. Old mesh shorts. Beat up running shoes. You know, an outfit better suited to painting my house rather than going into public.

Recently, I picked up some new workout gear to keep up with my exercise routine. I didn’t think much about it, but bought whatever looked cool, had great reviews, and would be comfortable in the gym.

A funny thing happened. When my clothes fit at the gym, I felt way more confident. I had one of the best workouts of my life that day. That got me thinking. We know that exercise can boost confidence. But we don’t hear much about how confidence can boost your exercise.

10 GYM ESSENTIALS FOR MEN

Gentleman Within has put together a list of 10 gym essentials for looking good, feeling more confident, and getting the most out of your workout.

Whether you’re a weightlifter, crossfitter, runner, or Richard Simmons jazzercise fanatic, these 10 items will change the way you workout forever.

Here’s what guys should bring to the gym to ensure an optimal workout.

10 Men's Dress Shoe Types: Oxfords, Not Brogues (Everything You Need to Know)

10 Men's Dress Shoe Types: Oxfords, Not Brogues (Everything You Need to Know)

You may have seen the movie Kingsman in which the phrase “Oxfords not Brogues” is used as code words for their secret service. This implies that oxfords are the classier shoe. And technically they are, but there’s much more to it than that. And what about derbys anyway?

In this article we will discuss in-depth, 10 men’s dress shoe types:

  1. Oxfords
  2. Derbies
  3. Brogues
  4. Wingtips
  5. Wholecuts
  6. Loafers
  7. Monkstraps
  8. Chukkas
  9. Chelseas
  10. Opera Pumps

Additionally, we’ll dissect the anatomy of the dress shoe and other shoe terms that all stylish men should know, courtesy of Esquire’s seminal The Handbook of Style.

And of course we’ll also breakdown the differences between the often confused oxfords, derbys and brogues.

How to Develop a Growth Mindset (and Set Yourself Up for Life Success)

How to Develop a Growth Mindset (and Set Yourself Up for Life Success)

Growth mindset is a term coined by American Psychologist Carol Dweck in her 2007 book, "Mindset: The New Psychology of Success". With this mindset we can navigate life and ultimately find success.

Today’s podcast explores the benefits of having a growth mindset, everyday examples and most importantly, practical tips on how to develop one.

Growth Mindset vs Fixed Mindset

Generally speaking, there are two kinds of mindsets; fixed mindset and growth mindset.

What is a Fixed Mindset?

A fixed mindset is referred to as the belief that everyone is born with traits like intelligence, creativity and certain talents that are "fixed" and cannot be learned or developed over time.

You are just born with it and that's how you are, but the problem is, it is very restricting and limits human potential (according to criticism by various researchers).

What is a Growth Mindset?

On the other hand, a growth mindset is the belief that your abilities can be developed through your effort and hard work. Our environment also plays a major role in shaping it.

Humans are flexible like that. My mind was blown when I learned about neuroplasticity — the concept that the brain, in response to the environmental triggers, is capable of modifying, changing and adapting both structurally and functionally throughout our lifespan.

Best Bourbon Brands Under $100 (7 Wonderful Whiskeys You Have to Taste)

Best Bourbon Brands Under $100 (7 Wonderful Whiskeys You Have to Taste)

As we wind our way into the cold months of the year in general, I find myself reaching increasingly towards a warming, darker cup of spirits instead of my usual clear summer sprightly drink; namely, for a whiskey and at that, probably a bourbon.

What Is Bourbon?

Bourbon is the only true American contribution to the wonderful world of booze. A distinct form of whiskey, it is barrel-aged and must be produced at least 51% from corn.

It has been distilled in this country, where it was created, since the 18th century and although it is associated with the South (particularly Kentucky) we can now easily find bourbons from all over the country.

Abridged History Of Bourbon

Common lore attributes the invention of bourbon to Elijah Craig (a Baptist minister!), whose name now graces a popular brand of bourbon, but this is entirely apocryphal.

What is important to know is that this was the product of many immigrants moving here from around the world and is a rich thread in the tapestry of this nation.

What Makes It Bourbon?

There are a great many legal requirements (see 27 CFR §5.22(b)(1)(i) for all of the gory details) for a bourbon but a few which we all see printed on labels which might change how you shop. Namely:

  • All bourbon must be bottled at 80 proof or more (anything less is not bourbon).
  • There is no minimum aging period, except for “straight” bourbon which is a minimum of two years.
  • Blended bourbons must list the age of the youngest bourbon in the mix, except if blended with grain alcohol (think Everclear), which is not counted.
  • “Bottled-in-bond” must be aged at least four years and is a separate sub-category dealt with below.

When shopping for bourbon, as I do all of the winter months, it’s useful to keep these distinctions and the different types of bourbon handy.

And now let's get into the best bourbons, all under $100.

How to Flirt with a Girl Over Text (and Still Stay Classy)

How to Flirt with a Girl Over Text (and Still Stay Classy)

What do you picture when you hear the word “class”?

If a man is described as “classy,” what would he look like in your mind’s eye?

Most of the time, gentlemen with slicked back hair and thousand-dollar suits from old Hollywood movies come to mind. But what makes those men so classy?

Class is all about poise. It’s the way you hold yourself and treat others that determines whether or not you have class, and whether or not you have class ultimately determines the way women will feel about you.

Do you want to captivate that woman you’ve had your eye on? Do you want to sweep her off her feet and impress her with your elegant charm? Well, these days, it all starts with a few well-planned texts.

Follow these 8 great tips to keep your text conversations calm, cool, and classy. You’ll be on your way to winning her heart in no time.

51 Ways To Be A Modern-Day Gentleman (Rules & Etiquette)

51 Ways To Be A Modern-Day Gentleman (Rules & Etiquette)

What does it mean to be a gentleman in 2021? Let us show you exactly how to be a gentleman in modern-day society — 51 ways to be exact.

There's lots of history on what it means to be a gentleman.

To some, it's defined by a man's style of dress. Others would say it's about chivalry; opening doors for a lady or picking up the tab on a date.

Today it means so much more.

Being a modern-day gentleman is about more than dressing the part. And it's about more than impressing the woman you're courting.

It's about compassion and treating others with respect. It's about doing the little things to make the lives of the people around you easier.

Being a gentleman today is about how a you contribute positively to the world.

A gentleman has an insatiable thirst for knowledge and education, but an even greater thirst to create and communicate the things he has learned to contribute to a greater good. This is what defines him.

The great thing is that by practicing regularly, it becomes a part of who he is. All that being said, here are my tips on what I feel makes up a modern-day gentleman.

How to Be More Sustainable With Clothes: 5 Simple Sustainability Tips for Men

How to Be More Sustainable With Clothes: 5 Simple Sustainability Tips for Men

This episode focuses on how you can be more sustainable with your clothing, and 5 practical and simple sustainability tips for stylish men.

"I think consumers are more educated these days and conscious of where they spend their hard earned dollars. With the social and racial awakening in 2020, so called “conscious brands” will be held to a higher standard and understandably so.  

Ultimately, I think brands will need to have more accountability, and not just wear a mask of sustainability and ethical practice, but actually put the money where their mouth is."
