Can we talk about sake? Recently went to a sake bar and was surprised how delicious that stuff can be

otokoyama and karatamba are both pretty good. look for junmai sakes.

Kizakura Yamahai

Fucking cheap but good. Go to everytime.

sake is alright, the cheap stuff usually sucks though

>Asian friend has housewarming party
>They offer some kind of unfiltered traditional sake
>Full of yeast clumps

I gulped it down and thanked them, but that was disgusting.

clumps? that's not supposed to happen, it was bad sake. unfiltered doesn't mean lumpy.

you know how most whites don't know shit about wine? so it is with asians and sake. does that blow your mind?

user, there is no greater evil in the world than enjoying a Japanese thing.

I wish gay bars where i lived served sake

theres a big gap in the market for an Eastern gay bar here in London

I drink soju

I like the chinky brown dubious tasting rice wine desu. I think some sake varieties can also have that flavor.

Fucking horrible. Literally tastes like kilju.

Got a bottle of this purple rice sake for my birthday, it was pretty good

Baijiu >>> soju >>>>>>>>>>> sake

Looks like lighter fluid

this

I wish my town was big enough to have a sake bar. I'd be there often. I don't really have much selection in my town but your image and the basic GEKKIKAN is all my town offers. Both are like $8 a bottle and I enjoy them warmed in a pot. I don't know much about sake, but it's become my favorite alcohol as of late.

That shit is evil. Does the job but burns like hell and gives a nice headache the next day. Great if you wanna give it to someone trying alcohol for the first time and you want to discourage them from drinking more.

Tastes like it too, it amuses the shit out of me how prices of that stuff have gone through the roof in the last 15 years

anyone who says soju is good is a fucking retard, it's literally just neutral spirits watered down and sweetened until palatable to sensitive gooks and could easily be given to school children

Is it okay to drink this at room temperature?
How should I drink Sake?

you would give booze to school children? for shame user

>sweetened
>soju
I bet you think spiced rum is rum too

I mentioned this in the previous thread but pic related is a super accessible lower cost daijingo that should serve as your baseline for how you judge sake. If you drink this and find yourself wanting more, there's a whole world of amazing varieties out there.

You think i can find this in my local Asian supermarket?

Yes, it's super common. Here's an acceptable junmai jingo that's pretty good for the price, but the daijingo is cheap and worth the extra 10bux

Get it from bevmo

Unfiltered sake > all

Unpasteurized sake > your shit tastes

I don't think sharts can get unpasteurized sake, it's only available for like three months out of the year in Japan

It's rare, but I've had some stateside

You just have to live near a decent supplier

>clear, white spirit
>giving you more of a headache than whisky/beer etc.
Could you *BE* more ignorant?

The white clumps were rice not yeast.

had sake once, a $8 bottle, I think it was "plum"
it was good

Unfiltered sake is my favorite, so sweet

That was plum wine, not rice wine.
