What is a "Gentleman's drink"
f0dder:
"Good" wine that Night Train, it's what Guns n' Roses used to get high, Slash said something about its particular effects, and it was cheap, so it was they quickest way for them to go from sober to drunk without breaking the bank (before "Appetite for Destruction" they were not exactly rich, much more the opposite). Of course, the song is inspired by the wine :)

And it was exactly that song I was thinking about :)

I think app103 nailed it. The traditional drinks you think of being served after a successful climb on Mt. Everest; or in the hands of well-dressed men posing over newly signed treaties.
My list:
* Gin & Tonic (ice permitted)
* Scotch & Soda (soda optional and never ever served with ice)
* Whiskey (always served straight-up)
* Martini (US only - and must be served "very dry")
* Cognac (after dinner or late night only)
Cheers! :Thmbsup:

I've always though Gin&Tonic is a pretty girly drink :)
Innuendo:
There's actually a thing called "night train"? I always thought "I'm on the night train" was figuratively speaking :)-f0dder (December 28, 2007, 06:40 AM)

Yes...there's indeed a Night Train. Night Train Express is the full name.

The fact that it seems to smell like perfume to me doesn't help :P
