The first time I "drank around the world" I made the mistake of being talked into trying sake, WARM sake. Not my thing. The next time, I tried the plum wine. Better than the sake, but still not really my thing. So, the next time, I tried the Kirin beer. Bottom line - Kirin was the best choice in Japan for me so far.
Yes! I have been done in by the sake bar more than once!!
