Drinking has many different customs and rituals in different regions, ethnic groups and countries.
Japan, since ancient times, has been a nation that enjoys drinking, and there is no shame in getting drunk. Adults not only drink at banquets, but after a day's work, they also tend to go into a pub and have a drink before going home. According to Japanese custom, drinking is an important ritual. With the Japanese people *** with meals and drinks, should always pay attention to others and their own cups full of wine, wine not full of cups in the Japanese view is impolite. You should also understand the Japanese custom of pouring sake for each other, and the guest should take the host's bottle of sake and pour it for the host as soon as the host has poured it for him or her. In the middle of a banquet, neither the guest nor the host pours wine into their own cups, but rather into each other's cups.
The Japanese consider this to be a sign of equality between the host and the guest, and even when a senior manager pours with an ordinary clerk, the two sides pour for each other. The traditional Japanese method of drinking is to place a bowl full of water in the center of the table and place a clean white cloth on each person's table. The host shakes his or her glass in the water, presses it face down on the gauze to soak up the water droplets, pours the sake, hands it to the guest, and watches as he or she drinks it all in one go. When the guest finishes drinking, he also shakes the glass in clean water, dries it on the white gauze, fills it with wine, hands it back to the host, and asks the host to drink it all. This exchange of cups and drinks indicates the closeness between the host and the guest.
It is not necessary to drink like this if you are just friends. When drinking in Japan, it is rude to leave your glass on the table for the host to fill it. When pouring, hold the decanter in your right hand and hold it from underneath with your left hand, never touching the glass. The guest should hold the glass in his right hand and rest the bottom of the glass lightly in his left, accepting the other party's pour. In general, it is courteous to accept the first drink and not rude to politely decline the second. Japanese people tend to put their glasses on the table when they finish drinking, but it is only polite to wait until everyone has finished drinking and then put the glasses on the table together, instead of putting them up when the second glass is declined.
Chinese people say? It is clear that drinking is an important means of socializing not only in Chinese society but also in Japanese society.

There are two ways of saying the origin of the clinking ceremony: the first is from ancient Greece. Ancient Greeks believe that when drinking wine, the nose can smell the wine, eyes can see the color of the wine, the tongue can taste the flavor of the wine, but only the ears can not feel. In order to make up for this shortcoming, they came up with the idea of clinking glasses with each other before drinking, so that the ear can hear the crisp sound of the glass. Over time, this practice has gradually become a drinking ritual. The second comes from ancient Rome. In the ancient Roman warriors? Wrestling? Before the competition, both sides should drink a glass of wine, to show mutual encouragement. But because the wine is prepared beforehand, in order to prove that there is no poison in the wine, when drinking, the dueling sides first pour out the wine and mix with each other, and then a drink. This custom gradually became the ritual of clinking glasses at the banquet.

It wasn't until the 18th century that the toast took on its present meaning and developed into a toasted ode to accompany it. Toasts were often made by clinking glasses with each other, and the clinking of glasses, like the ringing of church bells, was done to ward off evil spirits. In the past, a toast must also be held in the right hand, straight and shoulder level, this is to show each other that they do not have a hidden weapon in the waist, to show friendship.
