>here's your incredibly dilute whiskey insparkling water
>that'll be $17 bro
so is this just "thing, Japan" or do retards actually like these?
>>
Holy fucking ESL.

Learn English before criticizing Japan.

A highball doesn't cost $17. Any standard izakaya is probably charging 500yen, which is 3 bucks. It still has a shot of whiskey and is cheaper than any shot you'd get in a bar in the states

Try harder with your ragebait next time

there was nothing wrong with what op said regarding grammar

colossal retards, the latter especially so

trying a couple highballs is kinda high on my list of to-dos when i visit japan because every time ive made it myself it's been pretty not good
>>
>>22043329
bro it's literally just whiskey with ice and soda water. if you're replicating it and don't like it a plane trip is probably not going to change that
>>
>>22043333
probably not but im gonna be going to places that serve alcohol anyhow so getting one or two will be fun still i love doing whimsical small experiences for the sake of joy and trying things most of which will not be highballs
>>
>>22043333
In this case whiskey japan makes a difference because they use shit like toki that is very floral compared to us whiskeys and scotch.
>>
>>22043306
Japan, like most asian cultures, drinking to get fucked up, not to sample and enjoy quality liquors. A Highball is easy to drink and gets you fucked up if you drink enough.

A restaurant in Argentina randomly gave me some sort of vermouth drink as part of my dinner. It was probably more dilute than whatever is in your pic. It wasn't bad, kind of nice of the place.

It's being used as an adjective.

i used to spam highballs to get the drunkenness buff in yakuza 0 because they always looked so nice from the thumbnail, then i'd give Kiryu a nice oolong tea to wash down his 5 drinks
>>
>>22044122
wtf does any of this mean?
>>
>>22044127
yakuza 0 is a video game
>>
>>22044131
ah

If you don't like whiskey & soda, fine, and the freaks who sperg out about highballs are fucking gay, but unless you're getting top shelf whiskey, they're cheap as fuck in Japan. The yakitori place I go to near my house sells 1L mega-highballs for 490 yen. Particularly makes a good drink in summer.

The one I usually drink in Japan costs $13.
For $13, you get unlimited refills.
