Meanwhile, Issei conducts his own search-not for the woman behind the wine, but for the wine that made Yutaka picture such revered beauty…

One last challenge stands between Shizuku Kanzaki and his father's fortune-to identify the wine his father called “The Drops of God” in his will. Problem is, he's up against Issei Tomine, a famous wine critic his father adopted shortly before his death. Alone and penniless following his journey around the world to gain knowledge and train his senses for the final showdown, Shizuku stumbles into a western-style izakaya to work for food and a place to stay. But when Shizuku uses his newfound smarts to save the struggling business, a competing chain launches an identical menu and enlists the help of a rising sommelier to go head-to-head with them. In order to stay on top and survive this brutal business, it all comes down to perfecting the food and wine pairings-the blissful mariage of flavors which delights the senses.

Shizuku and Issei are eager to begin their competition to identify the Drops of God, but the Order possessing the description of it stands in their way. When one member doubts their qualifications, they must prove themselves worthy by pairing wine and cheese. A simple task on the surface, perhaps, but when good options are plenty, perfecting a true mariage is that much harder…and the cheese is anything but normal.
