- Yes, we're trying Asian alcohol.
Which I'm really excited about,
'cause I might try something that I haven't had before.
- I'm so scared.
- Yeah. - I'm so scared.
- No, it'll be fine.
(upbeat music)
- I'm excited, are you?
- I'm really excited because I haven't
had an alcohol video yet on TRY.
- Oh, is this your first TRY
alcohol video? - My first alcohol video.
Yeah.
- In advance, I am so sorry.
- As we all know,
I'm the one with the poker face on this channel
- No, you have the best face ever.
- Can you imagine?
You're gonna be like,
oh, just a little bit more.
- We want sake and whiskey, hurry up.
- Sake, whiskey,
other nice drinks.
Something that maybe has a smile on it,
so that I know it's not gonna kill my insides.
That'd be pretty nice.
(upbeat music)
(both cheering)
- Look at that bottle.
- Oh, it's so pretty. - Beautiful.
- That looks like a cloudy liquid.
- What is in,
do we shake it?
- Sake!
- Yes!
It looks such.
Like its so pretty. It's such a pretty bottle
- It has got like some sediment any in there?
- Sayuri
- Ya look oh my god. It's falling down
- Oh my god. Its like the most beautiful frosted glass
This is splendid.
- What is floating in that?
- (In unison) Oh!
- Hey we just learned something.
- We learned something.
- How about that, thank you, Seán.
- Have you had sake before?
- Yes, only in restaurants. Not like drinking it on its own
- There is a sake meter
And on the meter it has a value of minus 11.
- That's my favourite number.
It's meant to be.
- That smells lovely. Smells like if you made
an ice cream float out of 7 Up.
- Ooh
- There's not much of a whiff off it to be honest.
- A wine whiff.
- That, that looks like milk, lads.
That looks like straight up milk.
(glass clinking)
- (in unison) Cheers!
- Kanpai!
- Oh, there's a lot of residue left on the glass
just from one sip. Look at that!
- I prefer mine with like some fruit in it.
But it's still nice.
- Oh, that's unusual. Ooh, that's like sherry.
That's like Harvey's Bristol cream.
- I love sake because it's not really like any other drink.
It's like this smooth different flavour
with a tiny kick of alcohol right at the end
- It's a bit perfume-y. Like drinking perfume.
Like drinking a really good perfume.
- You do get like a tackiness from it.
- Yeah
- Which is obviously the sediment but
- It kind of tastes like flowers.
- It just goes down nice. And it makes me think
the rest of the shoot is gonna be nice Colin, yeah?
- You done?
- I'm on, yeah you go for it.
- It's not even that great. But you know.
- I'm not the biggest fan of that.
- (grumbles)
- Oh there you go. Now there's a kick.
- (upbeat music)
- It looks like a jar of jam.
- Fucking hell, this looks like toilet cleaner.
- Holy ball bags!
- Oh my god, it's like a travel flask you can
bring it on hikes.
- I mean this is, feel the weight of that.
- Holy shit. It's like a shake weight, isn't it?
- Oh my god, there's
- Oh my god there's plums!
- Oh my god!
- Oh, with plums added.
- There's a pair of testicles in there.
- I got kind of scared 'cause I thought
it was an animal. I don't know why.
- Enjoy on the rocks as an aperitif
for dessert wine or mix with dry sparkling wine.
- Do you have any dry sparkling wine?
- (laughing)
- Grand!
- How do we feel about this one? How do you think
this is gonna go down?
- I don't normally eat plums.
- Oh I'm definitely eating a plum
Oh, I'm for sure eating a plum.
- You're out, you're on a camper van holiday, right?
Sharon is in the front and Uncle Robert
is there driving the van and he just,
you're having that and you're thinking.
Wow, this looks so quaint, but it's not
because it's alcohol.
- Absolutely
- Oh!
Whoa!
- Not a fan?
- That is alcohol!
- Ahhh
Oh! Wow!
- It's like apple juice.
- It's like apple juice and someone's gun. Shh.
- No, it's not like a wine I've had before.
It's better.
- You all right?
- Yeah I'm grand. Are you?
- Yeah, it just wasn't what I was expecting.
- It doesn't even taste like there's alcohol
in it except a little bit of warmth
- It tastes like a spirit.
It tastes like it's for sipping. Not for,
It's not like
You know, a wine isn't this strong.
- Oh, it's a bit much isn't it?
- I'm okay with this
- It's not sharp. It doesn't like, there's no burn.
It's just like a little warmth to your apple juice.
- It's a bit, It's a bit too
- It's a very like grabbing taste
It grabs you.
- (in unison) Yeah
- I just can't get over the bottle.
- I can, it's leaking everywhere
Same
- You know what. You don't mind about the leaking.
Because, I leak a little bit. You know.
- Oh, the comments section.
- (upbeat music)
- Oh, it's blue!
- These bottles are outdoing themselves
- Oh my gosh, it's so pretty
Look at this!
- Oh, it's sake again?
It is sake again.
- Oh! Just like the other one only it's in blue.
- It says it's 14 and a half percent
- This flowery fragrance sake
with silky well-balanced smoothness
- I can taste it
- (burp)
- Oh there you go.
- Wow! Okay, that happened.
- If Lolsy's in the video, you kinda have to compete with her
Do you know what I mean?
- Okay
- It's so funny when you look at the packaging in the bottle
It's like, we might as well throw alcohol in troughs.
- (laughing)
- Compared to this, like.
- 14.5 perfect. It just keeps on going up.
This this this looks, this looks like sake I've had before.
- Superior Junmai
Ginjo.
Ginjo?
- Did you drink already? Shite. Sorry.
- I haven't yet. It's imported. Let's go nuts
It's not great.
- It's not what I expected.
- It's not expected but, it's also like water.
- That's fucking rose water.
- Yeah, it's a bit like rose water.
It's very, very faint taste
But there is a nice little after taste.
- It kinda tastes like vodka.
But really really really mild vodka
- Have you ever boiled some rice and then
drank the water?
- Oh my god. Who hurt you?
- I never said I did! I'm just asking if you have.
- Oh my god, no!
- Neither have I!
- Then why'd you ask me?
- 'Cause I'm wondering if this is the same thing.
- It's amazing that they can put so much alcohol
in something and it doesn't taste like alcohol at all.
- This is a 3 on the sake meter,
- I preferred the more flowery one which is really weird
'cause usually I wouldn't like sweeter things.
- I don't like this whatsoever. I think it's very watery
It's like someone got white wine and they stole
it off their parents and put it back with that much left
and filled it up with water.
- It kinda tastes, dare I say, like a little bit bland.
- It's not as thick as the others, it's more like a,
as James says, like a water. it just slides down the mouth hole. There.
- Sometimes I think you want the comments.
- You'd be like. Oh no there's no alcohol in this.
It's fine.
- Then six hours later you're like karaoke!
- I'll tell you what I really fucking
think about you, Sheila.
- And the cloudy sake was very creamy so I reckon
if you drink a lot of that, it will make you feel
a bit sick.
Where as if you sup on this for awhile
You'd be fine
- I just don't like rice wine.
- (upbeat music)
- This looks like a New Year's decoration
- This bottle is completely different,
'cause it has like the brown kind of look.
Some would say an Irish look to it.
- So this is made from water, rice, wheat,
and a caramel colouring.
- Does this smell nutty to you?
Because I feel like you're like the
- Ya it smells like creamy, nutty, kind of dried fruit.
- Oh that looks like whiskey.
- That smells a tiny bit like manure.
And it kinda has the colour of it too.
- I don't like this.
- It smells more alcoholic. This is, how is it?
- Oh dear no. Oh dear god no.
Oh no.
- (retching)
- Did you do a face?
- It's so different. Try it and see what you think.
- Nope. Oh no no no no. No
Oh she's going back for more.
- It's a bit stronger alright.
Doing okay there?
- (grunts)
- It tastes like a condiment.
- Oh god. Oh god. Oh god.
I was in the bathroom yesterday and that
was something's giving me flashbacks
- Oh no. No.
- No, gosh.
- No!
- I am, I quite like it.
- Crazy
- Thanks a million.
- Chin chin
- It's very. Oh, Jesus.
- It's a really awful after taste.
- It's a really fucking bad during taste either
As well, either. I can't even fuckin' speak!
Oh god.
- The smell is not how it tastes. It's a little off putting.
- I would disagree with that.
- Really?
- Yeah
- Oh god, no.
- It's very different. - It's herb-y.
It's like the, instead of making it out of the fruit
they made it out of the stones of the fruit.
Mick Jagger
- And someone pissed on the stones.
- They've made it out of Mick Jagger. They've made it
out of Keith Richards. They just kinda mortar and pestled
them all.
- Love your food. Hate your rice wine.
- It's like it's got that right amount of kick
to the alcohol percentage.
- Yeah, I felt the kick. It was a kick to the genitals.
- Now I feel like I'm being an arsehole
'cause you're just watching us getting drunk.
- (bottle blowing)
- (yodeling)
- (upbeat music)
- Shit, it's ginseng. Fuck it looks like
there's a willy in the bottle. Look at this!
- Oh my god. There's a big thing in it.
It looks like a ginger root.
- All the way from Seoul.
- There is not an animal in here.
- No there isn't.
It's just ginseng.
- What is that? Is that very thin turnip?
- Oh my god! It looks like a turnip.
- First off, what turnip? You mean a parsnip.
- No, oh my god.
- It's not.
- Oh my god. You know ginseng isn't an animal, right?
- Look in the box and tell me you don't see a head.
- I don't because it's ginseng.
- Oh wow, it does.
- Does it smell really good?
- It does. It smells like when you're taking
your pot of balancing and doing a bit of
- But not in a bad way.
- Oh it's not a. I thought that was a
- Can you not see that on the box.
- That looked like a shrimp to me.
- Okay so it's made out of alcohol, caramel,
Korean ginseng, purified water, and sugar.
- Doesn't she look like she's doing a sexy little
dance she's like
- (singing)
- Oh sure, Jesus, it's like being back in the farm.
- What are? Hold on let me just
- (grunts)
- Oh my gosh
- (laughing)
- Smooth. Real smooth
- I thought you were fully going down.
- I don't know that this will stay in my belly
for long from the smell of it. Let's see.
- Good!
- I'm just gonna have a small sip because I'm scared.
- Oh that's gorge.
- Oh, ginseng you fooled us all.
- I can't, it just tastes like vegetables.
- Oh god what kind of fucking vegetables are you eating?
- Oh that's caramel. It's like caramel
Strong though.
- But it's really smooth
- He got from here, to there.
- Oh my god that's like licking the inside
of a fucking marker.
- But it doesn't feel at all like your tongue is like
Oh this is too much, it's like oh its warm
- It's not burning, it's warming.
This is by the fire drink.
- There is in the way that you know you're drinking
of it, you're gonna be flat in the garden when you go home
do you know what I mean?
So you're gonna be tasting the earth.
- It tastes like a different type of drink
that I haven't had before.
And that's a good thing.
'Cause I'm here to learn about cultures and get drunk
while I'm doing it.
- That was 28 percent!
- What's your point?
- It's fine. It's a good thing.
You can feel it sinking down into the belly.
No its fine, no its okay.
- (grunting)
- I liked the pink one, the pink sake.
And I liked the last one.
'Cause the last one is just so different.
It was just so, like nothing I had before.
- I think I've been sleeping on Asian alcohol.
Particularly, their lovely mild, slightly sweet wines.
- You really liked the sake. The first sake, the milk one
'cause you went for seconds. You liked that ones.
- But you know what? I think I prefer, I think my favorite
might be the last one.
- Like a karate chop to the face that has hit me,
oh my god.
That was hit, I definitely wasn't sober coming here.
I now realized that. And I apologize.
