Drinking Alone

Dear Gentlemen,
Does a gentleman drink alone?

I hope the answer is yes.
 
God, I hope the answer is yes.


Thanks,

Mr. B, CA

Dear Mr. B,

The Gentleman’s tradition of enjoying a beverage in the company of his own thoughts as the night comes on is a grand one. And it should not be abandoned just because some men take the tradition a bit too far and end up realizing that their company leaves something to be desired.

The secret to drinking alone is actually quite simple: Don’t turn on the tv. But rather, imagine that you are doing your drinking and thinking on a mountain, or a sailboat. It makes thoughts seem grander, and ultimately, more gentlemanly. 

Be Grand,

The Gentlemen
