Toasts
This is commonly ‘skoal’ and you should not reach for your drink until your host has said ‘skoal’ themselves. At that moment you should raise your glass and then take a sip of your drink. After your host has proposed his/her toast you are free to make one of your own, should you choose to do so. When making a toast, remember to keep eye contact with those in the room from the moment your glass is raised, until it is placed back upon the table.
Do not offer a toast to anyone who appears to be more senior than you in age.
