Filipinos just can't seem to get
together without having a few drinks on
the table however this ceremony I never
had that I think it's considered
essential for a safe and no free session
as drinkers share a common glass this is
something that I experienced in shagal
everybody was just sharing a glass I was
[Music]
always welcome to what's up Philippines
we are back with another video with your
host Nelly and today I am going to react
to a video that
relate to one of my most viewed videos
in the past was related to that topic
and it's about Filipino drinking it's
quite intense I can say that the drinks
are white strong I think I was spitting
fire when I had tandoai and today I am
reacting to Philippines 101 Filipino
drinking etiquette which one are you and
it's by Boca the Explorer so I'm very
excited to watch this video I already
know that I will probably have a few
points that I can relate to pretty much
before we head into the video please
make sure to subscribe hit the
notification Bell and also check out my
other channel melies live and without
further Ado let's get into this video
call me no drinking is a vital part of
Filipino culture from the smallest bit
of patties to Big Town fiestas Filipinos
just can't seem to get together without
having a few drinks on the table however
believe it or not amidst the chaos noise
and age-old Order welcome to Philippines
101 and this is
[Music]
the opening of the bottle the tangelo
also the Gunner and one of the
distinctive characters of the drinking
culture in the Philippines the scenes an
important role now prior to the
commencement of the festivities a small
portion of the intoxicating liquid is
poured into the cap then subsequently
emptied onto the ground this ceremony I
never had that experience it's
considered essential for a safe
position the tanguero pause this is all
right
measuring the liquor by eye
the participants are not given
individual glasses this is an accordance
with the tradition of bagay which means
a show of trust camaraderie and in these
days a United willingness to enter in a
covered Russian Roulette as drinkers
share a common glass cast in a rap this
is something that I experienced in
Chicago when we went island hopping and
all of a sudden everybody was just
sharing a glass and I just got so I
don't know I was
we had some pandemics going on so yeah
that was quite interesting to experience
Russian Roulette as drinkers share a
common glass cast in a round robin
sequence
it is frowned upon to take a pass but
when a drink is excessively intoxicated
a substitute from within the group must
consume the short and the drink is
placed in his or her own turn to
maintain secrets
consumption to return the shot glass to
the center of the table will hand it
directly to that tangere
for the next drinker uh composition of
every drinking session varies however it
is important to familiarize oneself with
these characters has to be aware of the
characteristics
the Drunken Master a legend lifted with
immunity from inebriation usually left
with the task of cleaning love after all
is said and done The Walking Dead
conscious despite consuming overwhelming
amount of alcohol is commendable and
allows it to continuously engage
half dead State The Escape Artist
capable of sudden disappearances it
leaves unnoticed bringing with it its
share of the bill
the usual catalysts of trouble it turns
aggro and overconfident with every shot
oh my goodness concert queen or King
in its quest for validation the Sleeping
Beauty with its long tolerance
throughout this creature lacks the
ability to stay conscious with its
introduction in its bloodstream okay the
Sleeping Beauty I have seen so many
pictures from My Friends taking pictures
and posing with the Sleeping Beauty at
the end of the night where everybody is
just kind of like you know
posing with the Sleeping Beauty because
it is immobilized early on in the
session the Sleeping Beauty is the
primary target for embarrassing photos
and unwarranted facial doodles
the one task with the acquisition the
logistics of essential supplies to
perpetuate the drinking session such as
ice and booze
very essential assumed by the group
along with the alcohol
you see for Filipinos no drinking
session is complete without the
accompaniment of the food yes I was
waiting for that you see and fatty
variety
this is called
it comes from the filipino word meaning
now it is acceptable for drinkers to
grab small bites in between shots this
is to remove the bitterness from the
alcohol as well as prolong intoxication
as the food is hoped to slow down the
alcohol from entering the blood
in German it's called
which is a good base it is unacceptable
however to consume the pollutant with
rice as it is meant to be shared and not
to be hoarded and treated like a meal in
the event that grease or fat is
unavailable inexpensive nuts and chips
are usually the vulnerable Alternatives
including some born out of creative IDs
it might be delicious actually
shut up
[Music]
in Japanese is the Filipino way of
saying cheese the clinking of glasses
and the partaking of a shared beverage
containing every participant's DNA its
meant to honor old friendships celebrate
new ones and in certain situations
possibly avert oneself from being
violated with a sharp piece of metal
designed to break up ice
so good I hope there is another part of
this because there's so much about the
culture the etiquette of drinking in the
Philippines I personally have been part
of this pleasure many many times because
you know sometimes when you meet people
it involves a lot of San Miguel red
horse or tanduay so you can't say no of
course you have to be part of the fun
and luckily I have a very strong
background like my family being we're
acquainted with this kind of culture in
Bosnia we can take a lot so
um I don't know which person I am of the
ones but definitely the one that's you
know strong throughout the night just
have to make sure I stay hydrated
that's it guys if you enjoyed this video
definitely give it a thumbs up I have

living in the Philippines for three and
a half years documented a lot and I'm
