I liked the immediate "punch" feeling that it gave me. The atmosphere was right. I was with other women from work. I had an empty stomach. The air was full of friendship, laughter and gossip. The first little tiny cup of sake went down quickly and "bang", I was buzzed.
As with all alcohol, after you eat a meal - that same little cup of sake has no effect. Or not near as much. I long remember the days where I had to keep that buzz going and food was forfeited and in return I was blessed with a long, painful hangover the next morning. Ah, those were the days. (NOT!)

Yeah, I remember those days. Sake will knock you on your ass.
I never got drunk on Saki...but did not like the day after when I got drunk on blue collar beer!
It's the not wanting the morning after that's kept me from ever getting drunk, but an occasional half glass of wine with dinner is a nice thing.
My parents used to drink that stuff and even had a little warming plate to keep it the right temperature. I think the reason they drank it was because they knew I would not be stealing any of it as a teenager; so gross!
