It was more that I was curious than cheap, I got to try all of them while the small bottles were on sale and reduced. I want to try a South African wine next, but the labels on those wines suggest they are cheap tat as well.

Iām wanting to broaden my experiences with the sake, only tried one so far. Still got the bottle somewhere. It tasted pretty good.

I bought a small bottle while I was in Londons China Town. I would have bought a large bottle but the friend I was with said it was awful stuff, so I just got a small bottle to try for myself. I umā¦ wellā¦ have only taken a few sips, not because I dislike it, I just want to warm it up (I think that is what you are supposed to do with it) and havenāt bothered.
Yea, to compliment a meal. I tried it straight out of the bottle myself. Tasted kinda fruity.
Canāt really remember how it tasted now, I might heat some up in a pan later and see how it is.
Thatād make a good breakfast.

Who drinks in this day and age of Science?
Youād have to be dumb to drink
You arenāt drinking enough, obviously.
Iāve had sake too, once, when I was at a Japanese restaurant for my high school graduation. I also thought it tasted pretty good. Not as good as my Southern Comfort, though
Why drink at all?
Donāt the negatives of drinking outweight the positives?
You could say the same 'bout soda, but soda at least gives you energy while keeping you sober and is ārefreshing.ā
But alcohol? what taking care of your problems? feeling good? just to feel bad hours later, throwing up, etc.
btw with the higher risk of cancer?:laugh:
In an age of knowledge and Science I still donāt understand why people even dare smoke or drink
I drink to relax a bit, and because I like the taste. I donāt drink just to get drunk. Obviously you donāt know much about drinking if you think every time someone has a beer they have to wake up in a puddle of puke.

Tip oā the glass to ye.
I think my new favorite drink, out of the bottle anyway, is sparkling sake. I had one called Moonlight Bunny a few weeks ago, and it was amazing! Of course, I was fairly buzzed from a zombie, so it could have clouded my judgement. But I bought another brand later, and it was incredible as well!

QFE
I am addicted to soda (caffine!!! NEED IT). But I never dink alcohol and never will. I donāt understand it. I find alcohol only turns people into complete idiots. I canāt comprehend the reason(s) behind drinking. People who do nothing but get drunk are really puzzleling. But hey do whatever the hell you want. I donāt care what people do, as long as it doesnāt effect me.
So have I ever been drunk and posted on this forum. No, because Iāv never been drunk .
I still say you need to stop putting us casual drinkers in with the people who get sh**faced

Yes, there is a HUGE difference between drinking and getting drunk!!
Yes, there is a problem in America and it is the problem of extremes, One beer is not going to make you drunk, however if you have a low tolerance for alcohol, You may catch a buzzā¦pending type of beer. I donāt drink heavily when I drink at all. Anyone who has been with the forums since our previous incarnation has probably seen what I type like when I am shitfaced. I have probably only been really drunk three times in my life, the night I made that post and a before then when I would do a thirty minute power hour. Six beers in 30 minutes is kinda scary if you think about it. I did that twice, at the time I weighed about 140lbs right now I still weigh 140lbs, but I have recently suffered a loss in muscle mass mainly in my legs, so my tolerance has dropped some. I have tried sake and I like the stuff. It is good to drink with friends if you are traditional, which is the only way I have drunk sake is when there was someone for me to pour for, or someone to pour for me. I always enjoy myself, one time I did knock a glass of water to the floor by accident since my hand as a little numbā¦ The table was small too. If you want something to really get you going, you should try Sojouā¦its a Korean drink, you want to drink it by the shot tho and chilled is usually best.
If you have right mind set when you do drink then no problems. I donāt drink often, but I always make sure I have some friends around when I do. Karaoke is fun too.
