Beluga Vodka: The Chameleon of Vodkas

Beluga Vodka: The Chameleon of Vodkas

If you hear “vodka,” and you think of any other country than Russia, you’re probably not vodka-ing right. Beluga vodka is one of the finest super-premium vodkas in Russia, created in an unspoiled corner of Siberia, Beluga vodka is the perfect mixing alcohol, and will blend perfectly with almost anything you pour it into. This means...
Send your Ties to Fat Camp with Skinnyfatties

Send your Ties to Fat Camp with Skinnyfatties

If you’re like me, you probably don’t want to pay more than around $30 for a tie. Let’s be real: ties are some of the most marked-up in price pieces of clothing a guy will wear. That said, finding a slim and modern-shaped tie for $30 or less is often a challenge because modern and...
Giveaway: Stanley Flask from Huckberry

Giveaway: Stanley Flask from Huckberry

If you don’t know about Huckberry, you should. They are awesome in everything they do, and are one of the titans of the men-ternet. As such, they reached out to us and wanted to give away three Stanley flasks. Since you know I love giveaways, I said, “Sure!” Away we go. We decided to go...
Maestro Dobel Tequila: For Sippin'

Maestro Dobel Tequila: For Sippin’

Maestro Dobel is the real deal when it comes to tequila. I’d end the review at that, but I would have to fire myself. Maestro Dobel is a fairly new brand to the U.S., founded in 2008, so there aren’t a whole lot of war stories and interesting history tidbits about the label. However, the...
The Beautiful Simplicity of H&B London Wallets

The Beautiful Simplicity of H&B London Wallets

For a man, getting a new wallet is something that requires its own amount of pomp and circumstance. Most guys get a leather wallet and use it for a decade, leaving guys with a perfectly smooth, aged, and shaped wallet that is perfectly theirs. This is why wallets usually make terrible gifts, unless you have specific...
Is 800Razors.com Worth the Switch?

Is 800Razors.com Worth the Switch?

Yes, you’re seeing right: cartridge razors. Anyone who has been to this website more than a few times knows that I really don’t like cartridge razors, in general. The process is bland, the long-term costs are high, and there’s just something timeless about a double-edge razor. However, there are still plenty of guys in the...
Old Mugshots of Stylish (and not-so-stylish) Thieves

Old Mugshots of Stylish (and not-so-stylish) Thieves

This is a sponsored post. I was compensated by the Ford Fiesta Movement to write this article, but was given creative freedom to decide the manner in which to do it. All views and opinions are my own, and I was given total control. We’re not really into glamorizing theft, and such is not our...
Bacardi Rum and the History of the Cuba Libre

Bacardi Rum and the History of the Cuba Libre

The rum and coke is a staple in bars and liquor cabinets across the world. Not only is it easy to make, it’s enjoyable for basically everyone. Similarly, the Cuba libre (which is really just a rum and coke with lime, on the rocks) is a fantastic drink that isn’t much harder than its sibling...
The October 2013 Playlist

The October 2013 Playlist

October! Yes! I love this month so much, and with a wedding around the corner between Maria and I, I have even more reason to love this particular one. October is by far my favorite month of the year, and I can’t wait to share these songs with y’all. First we start off with the Dandy...
Boodles Gin: Drink Like Winston Churchill

Boodles Gin: Drink Like Winston Churchill

Boodles gin was a favorite of Winston Churchill, and I’m not surprised by that at all. Boodles has been around since 1845, and is largely the same as it was back then. The gin is extremely tasty, with hints of juniper, rosemary, nutmeg, sage, and coriander. It’s basically an herb party in this bottle, but don’t confuse...
Dearfoams: Lounge Like a King

Dearfoams: Lounge Like a King

If you don’t like slippers, you’re wrong. Seriously. Slippers are amazing, and rocking a pair of Dearfoams is as close to being a king as you can get when you’re in your underwear on the couch. Recently, I got my hands on a pair of their “boater moc” slippers, and hoo boy! I’ve been wanting a solid...
