I'm gonna sound like a weeb again, but I had sake for the first time and I think it's the only good alcohol. Sweet enough to not be throat burning, but not too sweet to glue down your throat. It's like a mellow wine with a hint of nuts.
@matrix Congratulations! It is one of my favorites too. Beer is bitter, wine is too sour or sharp, liquors are too strong. Ever hear the saying that sake tastes sweet when you're happy, but bitter when you're sad?
