Whenever you are forced to stay at home, you might get bored, but rather than just spending your day on the couch, you can use the time to practice a series of Gentlemanly skills.

0:00 Introduction
00:43 Learn to appreciate whiskey
If you’ve always wanted to like whiskey but haven’t come around to it, consider using some of your time at home to experiment

01:49 Learn to mix your favorite cocktail
Being able to mix a good drink is a skill that is always appreciated by others. Every gentleman should be able to mix a decent cocktail.

04:58 3. Write thank you notes
Even though you might not feel like there is much to be thankful for, at times, the simple act of sitting down to write a thank-you note can have surprising effects on your own gratitude for what you do have.

06:06 Learn how to use a fountain pen
It’s a unique gentleman’s tool that will make all your handwritten correspondence look much more intentional, elegant, and even like you value the other person more.

06:55 Learn how to give great gifts
Great gifts show how well you know someone and that they are worth the effort to find something meaningful for them.

08:11 Learn how to cook a signature dish really well
There will be a time when you have to make and if you can produce something that tastes great and guest worthy, you will be remembered favorably.

10:30 Learn how to smoke a cigar
There are “old school” gentleman’s pastime that we think every man should consider trying at least once if they are interested.

11:18 Tie a necktie or bow tie
The goal should be that you can tie or bow tie blindly without a mirror.

12:14 How to wet shave with a DE razor
Once you’ve made an initial investment into the tools and products you need, this is one of the least expensive methods of shaving overtime.

13:50 Cultivate your hobby
Classic men’s style is my hobby, which I then made a business

14:26 Learn how to listen better
It reflects respect for the other person by valuing their contribution to a conversation as much as your own

16:11 Learn how to argue like a gentleman

17:59 Outfit Rundown

    Culture on youtube?!? No way! In all seriousness, I'm glad that content like this exists out on the internet. Thanks for helping spread class and style.

    I am a person that doesn't smoke nor drink alcohol. And when we are there don't even drink coffee. But tea is my cup of tea. I have a whole collection of world teas at home that I enjoy in the afternoon and evening. That is also gentleman like. Ask the British.
  • @elenimaria1111
    I'm an Australian female who really enjoys the channel and content. Informative, yet presented with sincerity and fun. Your warmth and good nature always shines through your videos Raphael. Keep up the great work!!
  • @JoJo-xp6wr
    Excluding smoking and drinking, I might do the others! Vielen Dank, Herr Schneider!
  • @Fogmaster1990
    I’m glad I found your channel!!! Timeless and priceless information.
  • @carltrotter7622
    Can we have a quiz on Gentleman’s Gazette content between Raphael, Kyle and Preston?
  • I guess it is time to “learn to appreciate whisky” . Hehe, see you in 5 years at rehab
  • @laurinbiber2519
    Hallo Sven, Ich komme genau wie du auch aus Deutschland und seit einiger Zeit hatte ich immer mehr Lust bekommen mich „schicker“ bzw. wie ein Gentleman anzuziehen aber wie das heutzutage in Deutschland ist, ist es sehr schwer von einem auf den anderen Tag statt mit Kappe und Hoodie mit Anzug und Kravatte in die Schule zu gehen.Ich schätze deine Videos sehr und sie geben mir das Gefühl,dass es nicht so schwer seien kann und vermutlich hört sich das verrückt an aber für einen 13 jährigen Jungen wie mich ist es nicht leicht sich einfach so zu kleiden wie man möchte...Ich danke dir für all die Mühe die du in die Videos steckst und ich kann dir sagen es gibt niemanden auf You Tube der so gute Videos zu diesem Thema macht wie du ! Mach weiter So !!
  • Sven makes the Brazilian Homeland proud by metioning our best cocktail, best wishes from Brazil
  • @metalman7825
    People:”what can we do while stuck at home during a pandemic?!?” Sven:*slides bottle of whiskey across the table*....*wink*
  • @johncirello8676
    I watch these videos and think I’m being watched. The scotch, Mixed drinks, hand written notes, fountain pens, cigars and pipes. These are all things I do and enjoy.
  • @fc.aranyos
    who would have known getting hammered at home was a skill!
  • @lucasderman4704
    honestly, knowing how to make the standard cocktails with your guests or if you're inviting a special someone over for dinner is a very attractive trait. If you could mix a cocktail, then make a delicious dinner for the special girl in your life, they will love it more than anything.
  • @ianmackenzie686
    I'd love to do some of these but this weekend this gentleman needs to replace a section of wall in a bathroom after repairing a leaky drain pipe. Start this round without me, I'll join you for the next one🍸
  • After watching each video I gain confidence and I try to act like a gentleman.
