Quote from: Shen Li on August 26, 2024, 10:04:36 PMAll alcoholic beverages are very expensive here in Singapore.

What is the preferred alcohol there? If you know, what brands are considered "good"?

Everything you would find at home. Beer, whisky, vodka, rum, gin, and so on.

On top of these you'll find liquor from neighbouring countries. Chinese baijiu, Korean soju, Japanese sake.

The number one beer here is Singapore's own Tiger beer. However, you can find any beer(or liquor) you would in the US. Singapore is an international city.

The reason I ask is I need an education on Sake. Let me know what brands are good if you can find out. I paid $36 for a bottle of "KONTEKI SAKE TEARS OF DAWN DAIGINJO" in Florida a few weeks back and I thought it was decent...better than Tozi's Living Jewel anyway. We all got a bit hooked on what they call a Geisha Girl which is 1/2 plum wine and 1/2 sake to cut the sweetness. At Epcot several years ago I learned that they serve Hatkusuru Brand Plum Wine. I like it better than any other plum wine that I've tried.

A friend of mine knows sake. I will ask him.

I have tried sake maybe 3 times in the last 10 years.
