Alcohol sales and affiliate links
We do not sell alcohol. Prices come from shops; links to shops include affiliate links (advertising) and are marked “PR”. When you buy through such a link, we may receive a commission from the shop or a similar party. The order of shops and the ratings do not depend on commissions. A purchase is a transaction with the shop you go to.
Drinking age
The Service is for people aged 20 and over. In Japan, drinking under 20 is prohibited by law. Drink-driving is prohibited by law. Drinking during pregnancy or breastfeeding may harm the development of the foetus or baby. Please drink in moderation.
