But that may be due to two reasons mostly: (1) not being used to drinking it from when you are young, and (2) tasting low quality sake. I suppose if you drink a lot of it, eventually you get used to the flavor, and then you don't find it bad. It's an acquired taste, like coffee, like beer. Many people don't like them when they are young (teens), but if you drink more by the time you are 30 you like it, or don't think much about the flavor.
