When I was on Okinawa 1964-1965 you could buy a 1 litre bottle of sake for 27 cents. You could buy a Sake & 7up mixed drink at a bar for 35 cents. We used to drink Shuri Sake, which we were told was the best/better quality Sake on the island.
I don't know about that, but I do know that Sake leaves you with a pretty bad hang-over in the morning....probably one of the worst hang-overs I have ever expeienced....and I never touched the stuff again.:throwup:
