The difference depended on place and time. Certainly the two groups overlapped, where they were considered distinct.
A gentleman was usually considered to be a person who had a farming estate large enough that he did not work it, but peasant farmers lived and worked on it, a manor. This was distinct from the land owned by a yeoman, who worked his own, rather small, piece of land.
In many times, a gentleman was considered to be a member of the nobility, even if he had not title. Without a title he was of lower rank and less consequence than a knight, and considerably lower than a baronet. He might have been called a squire, but the meaning of this term also changed with time.
A noble was a member of a noble family, but this included all members, not just the ones who had titles of nobility. With a title of baron or of higher rank, a noble was a peer. Without that title, the noble was a commoner, just as a country gentleman was.
He was a gentleman--not a noble, but superior to the hoi polloi.
A knight would often be a vassal of a more powerful noble, or subsidiary to the noble in another way.A powerful noble could also hold a knighthood himself.
The difference between America and england were huge. The difference between england and the rest of Europe was huge. Britain was a democracy, many men could vote.

Europe, except for Holland and Switzerland, was absolute monarchies. The Noble owned most of the land. Almost all the farmers rented land.

To put it simply, a consummate gentlemen is a perfect gentleman. Being of noble birth used to be a requisite criteria for a gentleman, however, that is no longer the case. A gentleman is someone who conducts himself in accordance with the utmost propriety. Furthermore, a consummate gentleman is a gentleman of the highest caliber. Merely acting the part of a gentleman, does not a gentleman make. A true gentleman behaves as such not for the sake of appearances, but instead for the sake of being proper.

The primary difference is that Gentleman Jack undergoes a second stage of mellowing by charcoal filtration, whereas Jack Daniel's just goes through the one. This yields an even smoother whiskey. There are also some minor differences in the way that Gentleman Jack is matured.
A humanitarian is someone who is focused on promoting human welfare and assisting those in need, often through direct involvement in relief efforts or advocacy work. A philanthropist, on the other hand, is someone who donates money, resources, or time to support various charitable causes or organizations that aim to improve society. While both seek to help others, their approaches differ in terms of focus and means of support.
