Chinese Habit: Drinking Wine
“感情深,一口闷;感情浅,舔一舔”
"deep friendship one shot; shallow friendship drinking little by little"
(according to Chinese role when having a toast)
Glass position during the toast: the glass belongs to the younger person must be lower than the older person
However, if you realize that you are not a good drinker, while your Chinese host keeps offering you to have another toast (ganbei), then you can say: 随意 (suí yì ) which means refusing politely to have another toast due to a particular reason, for example you've got headache already.
