No matter how smart or skilled he is, any man worth his salt knows there’s always more he can learn. Below is a collection of some of the best resources for men available on the web…and beyond. From the best men’s lifestyle websites to educational resources on (gentle)manly subjects like cocktails, cooking, style & grooming, and business.
Each section includes a few key Distilled Man articles, helpful reference books for further study in the “gentlemanly arts,” and other online resources.
This list will continue to grow as I add more resources. Feel free to share this page with anyone who might appreciate it. You may also want to bookmark it so you can check back on the latest updates.
Got a resource every man should know about? Contact me at info (at) the distilled man dot com. I can’t promise I’ll include it since I like to “battle-test” most things before recommending them. But I always like to hear about new stuff that can help guys become better men.
