>japanese sake>only averages about 13% to 18% ABV>they drink it out of little sippy cups like it's some real hardcore shitwhat gives?
They also pour it for one another. Go out with your friends for a night of obligatory wine shots and lmk how it turns out. Easy to get wasted.
Japan food stuff is bland, lovers of it will call it "subtlety" but it's all mild and bland. You're only supposed to put a SINGLE DROP of soy sauce on your rice and fish! Yes, we have sweets.....they have a single grain of sugar in bean paste!
>>21097326Tradition.They drink beer if they wanna get hammered like the rest of us.
>>21097326Split a 30 dollar 1.5L bottle of sake with a friend and a half. Let me know how it goes.
>>21097326You're supposed to savour the taste, not chug it down like some hillbilly yokel.
>>21097326they drink a fuckton of them not 5
>>21097348That's wimpy and not manly, can you even call yourself a man drinking out of that little bowl?
>>21097332It is subtle. Your tastebuds are just destroyed from too much salt and sugar.Fresh ingredients don't need to be doused with shit.
>>21097352policing manliness is super gay
>>21097360Only people who aren't masculine don't discern between masculine and feminine.>>21097357No, it's bland. Eat a cheeseburger, some spicy chili, or some American fried chicken, that's good food.
>>21097326>why aren't they immediately trying to get maximum blasted?You'll figure it out when you get out of college.
>>21097326Beginner's levelLet me know when you move up to slamming shots of 20% soju all night while screaming karaoke with your mates.
>>21097386I went to a bar where the soju came out of a faucet at the table, you just had to pay for turn key
>>21097326The Japanese were stuck on an island with not a lot of food except for rice since there’s not much farmable land for 2000 years.
>>21097332ask yourself why "we" are all morbidly obese and "they" are generally thin
>>21097326Asians can not metabolize alcohol efficiently. Those sippy cups are like shots. >>21097332It actually is subtle. Your problem is… actually medical. Your brain nose and tongue actually burn out on flavors until you are casually putting daves scorpion sauce on an extra salty curry chili.
>>21097352Brother, you want to chug Asian swill, do it with soju or baijiu. They actually put effort into making sake taste good, even their cooking stuff is 10,000 times more drinkable than the average soju.
>>21097362Only people who arent masculine think that drinking estrogen juice out of a "stein" can make up for their moobs.
>>21097362Reddir tier trolling.
>>21097362>good food>approaching lethal salt content
>>21097333I thought they drank lots of whiskey. For relaxing times, make it Suntory time.
>>21097326sake comes from whale piss, i was told.
>>21097360This. Actual chads i meet irl are never obsessed with this stuff, it's always some beta trying to prove he isn't gay (he has a fetish or a porn addiction and is insecure about it)
>>21097326its just for sipping, not chugging huge amounts. they have beer and shochu cocktails for that. sake is just rice wine. shochu is rice whisky and usually sits at 25~40%. they cut that shit with ice water.
>>21097352the appeal is in a mostly naked slut wearing a kimono holding one of those then making you drink it from between her tits
>>21097458Whisky soda diluted to like 5 or 6 percent. Their whiskeys are kinda tuned for making whiskey sodas. Very refreshing.
>>21097352>drink out of a little bowl Japan :/>drink out of a little bowl Scotland :D
>>21097326I like the cheap swill they squirt on the grill and into you mouth at hibachi places. I've made them have to switch to a new bottle I can chug it down so quickly during their little song and dance. Gives me a headache immediately, thou
>>21097326https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_intolerance#Genetics
>>21097480It needs no explanation. Normal dudes grew up fagging around with their friends. Incels grew up alone and have only hate for the world that rightly rejected them.
>>21097409>Asians can not metabolize alcohol efficiently. Those sippy cups are like shots.This.I've got a related story actually. >back in the 90s >we send people to Cambodia for some reason >patrol of ours gets stopped once by a small Khmer force>obviously trying to stall them until the main force gets there>outnumbered so a fight wouldn't go well>one of the guys pulls out a couple of bottles of 50% rakija from back home that he was going to use to trade/bribe the locals>start drinking "because it's tradition when meeting new friends">Khmers get wasted>our guys manage to get out and get reinforcementsThose jap cups and bottles look neat, but I don't think I'd use them over a normal glass.

why are white people so obsessed with getting shitface wasted? drink five sippy cups of sake and you'll feel the buzz, same with three beers. why is it necessary to get DRUNK every time you consume alcohol
>>21099010Symptoms of a fragile mental state and lack of spirituality
>>21097326>what gives?you gotta remember the average japanese man is like 5'0", 120 lbs. it doesn't take a lot to get them hammered
>>21099010we need it to forget the current state of the world
>>21098341Cloudy sake is really good OP, it's a little sweeter and it actually tastes like rice. It's almost like thin, alcoholic rice pudding
Call me crazy but I find sake to be an excellent filler in drinks when you want to smooth it out.
Maybe because https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_flush_reaction ?I'm a quarter Asian and don't get this but my dad is half and turns completely red if he drinks too much alcohol too quickly, which typically means a couple beers. Red wine and sake, since they're typically had slowly, don't affect him as much, but white wines and champagne fuck him up, too.Meanwhile, I used to play Edward 40hands in college and never had any problems.
>>21097343What the fuck is a friend and a half
>>21099348>I used to play Edward 40hands in college Kek, were you born in the early 80's? My brother-in-law did that in college and he's roughly that age. I never heard of that in college as a zoomzoom

there is nothing better than drinking hot sake on a cold day. hot drinks are the best but most other alcohol is required to be room temperature or chilled. pour an entire coffee cups worth of hot sake and just drink it. its the best
>>21098981You need to go back
>>21098415kekw>>21098341gay
>>21097326>what gives?You're expected to drink many of the little cups. They're small so someone has to pour for you many times, which is the point of traditionally served sake. If you just want to get hammered alone in your room, you're welcome to just chug the bottle.
>>21099010don't be a retard

>>21097326the point is to enjoy the taste, not the alcohol percentage label on the bottle.
sake: weaksoju: midbaijiu: strongJapan has the weakest booze. Korea in the middle. China has the strongest. Baijiu is commonly 42 or 56%. Sake doesn't even taste good. None of them taste good. But at least with baijiu you can get it over with quickly.

>>21098480>luxuriesHow fucking poor are you?
it's called nipping not sipping
i might guess to minimize alcohol evaporation, since it's served warmso, keep it in a big bottle with a small hole, and only pour out a little at a timebut they'd probably cover the hole when not portioning if that were the case, so what do i know
Dassai is delicious.
>>21097326
>>21103590sure but even they need more than one little bottle of sake for that.
>>21099358>Kek, were you born in the early 80's? My brother-in-law did that in college and he's roughly that age. I never heard of that in college as a zoomzoom>not him but I'm 30 something and my friend did it in college. it wasn't super common to do but it wasn't uncommon either. everyone knew what it was
>>21097402Because their diet is 90% vegetables and thin broths with little to no seasoning or flavor because nothing with flavor grows on their islands, and their attempt at imperialism wasn't as successful as Britain's so they didn't even really get the chance to import flavor from other places like the bings did
>>21097351Noone is noticing this post and so i am granting you a (you)Nips are either damn near allergic to alcohol and cannot drink more thsn one or two drams without pissing themselves OR they drink competitively like they will have to commit sudoku if theyre not the last man standing. Japan has the weirdest drinking culture.

>>21097333>drink beer to get hammeredI physically can not force enough beer in my gullet to get hammered. My stomach would rupture before I got drunk.
Hello anons, I'm like getting drunk but I don't like the taste of alcohol, and I don't mean alcoholic beverages in general it's just the alcohol that's yucky. I like cocktails or weak bear and wine(under 10 percent), my family makes wine and theirs is delicious, it's kind of tangy, fruity and makes my mouth go dry, plus their beer was much better than store bought, but all I've had from the store tasted like shit, 12.5 percent beer, 14 percent wine(it was cheap store bought stuff) , vodka, whiskey and so on. I've always wanted to try sake, is it delicious? Should I try it? Or is it going to taste like acetone and hand wash like the vodka? Or will it taste rotten and have a bad after taste like the wine? I've heard it tastes floral, kind of similar to lychee.
Buy this first when you come to Japan.Trust me.
>>21108201You should choose fruit liquor.
>>21108215NO, FUCK NO, I some the other night, had an entire bottle, then another, got so black out drunk I passed out in the bathroom throwing up, woke up at 4 in the morning just to throw up and was so tired I just went back to sleep on the bathroom floor,now merely thinking about it makes me nauseous, looking at that picture makes my stomach all queasy, never again.
>>21108215>>21108221oh wait, is that liquor made from fruit? I might be retarded and I'm certainly inexperienced when it comes to drinking, the one I had said fruit flavored wine and had pictures of coconuts, bananas and other tropical fruit on it, I think it was something else. I don't remember the exact name unfortunately.
>>21108221Lmao, you liked it so much you drank it all up, didn't you?
>>21108222The common process is to soak crystalline sugar and fruit in cheap distilled liquor.Expensive liquors such as brandy, scotch, and sake are sometimes used.

>>21108201Bros, please answer, I'm going shopping tomorrow, should I buy sake or not? Will it taste floral and fruity or is it going to be gross and alcoholic? Keep in mind im not going to be buying some fancy schmancy 2000 dollar bottle distilled a thousand times by master samurai and what not.
>>21108383I wouldn't bother. To me, the average sake tastes like white wine without the sweetness. You don't really taste the alcohol but it doesn't taste very good. Just buy 8% beer and drink that. Anything higher and you start tasting the alcohol
If you are a new sake drinker, try a sweet sake such as Dassai 45.
>>21097332THIS MAN IS AN ARTIST
Those who thought sake tasted bad were the first to drink dry or cheap sake.The first sake should be a little expensive sweet sake.
Sake is very tasty when served with Japanese food.
Do you usually drink sweet or dry sake?Can you distinguish between the two?
>>21097482THAT SETTLES IT I AM GOING TO JAPAN
>>21108201>>21108383the cloudier kind tends to be sweeter. they make some really sweet ones.
Tyler Perry's Madea Drinks Sake
>>21097326You drink that stuff hot and after a cuple of cups you will feel hammered.
>>21108995When you get to Japan, go to the grocery store and buy this>>21108207Each bottle is 1.8 to 2.0 liters and costs about 6 to 8 euros.
>>21097332You've never watched even a single Japanese cooking video. They add truckloads of sugar and salt to recipes.
>>21097326I like a little 375 mL bottle of some chilled and cloudy sake to go with my teppanyaki and sushi meal at the beginning of a night out but it ain't hardcore at all. You could get hammered on sake but it's not cost effective and you'd probably get sick of it before getting to that point. Same with soju, it's to accompany food and/or beer and not be the complete means to the end. If you want to get wasted on the local traditional liquor go to Thailand or The Philippines. Never been to the latter but at the former you can get a 700 mL bottle of the modeling glue flavored whiskey/rum Sangsom and a 1.25 L coke to mix it with for like 8 bucks at any 7/11...during certain hours.
>>21097326Anon I hate to break it to you but anyone who is not a regular drinker (a.k.a. an addict in denial) does get their throat burned and immediate buzz from 13% to 18% ABV. The amount of pride you have for being tolerant to alcohol is equal to the amount of damage you have done to yourself.
>>21097326why is it smoldering?
>>21110537In Japan, you can get 4000ml at 25% alcohol for $10.
