Liquid: Ogre of Sake the Miraculous Warehouse
A sake brewery of long standing in Kanazawa is deep in the red. The ownerâs only son Sagara Shuichi, an elite banker, resigns from the bank because of something that came up, and decides to stake his life on making sake. Grasping at straws, he clings to the legendary master brewer, Washio Yusaku. However, Yusaku is the man feared as an ogre. Shuichi is prepared to be âeaten by the ogreâ, but he is thrust into a difficult position when he sinks further into debt because of Yusakuâs pursuit of âperfect sake makingâ. Moreover, the brewers working for Yusaku are strangers to sake making. They are men and women who have lost their places to go for their own reasons, and have moved in with the sake brewery. One of them is Shuichiâs cousin, Naoki. In the middle of preparing the daiginjo sake on which the fate of the sake brewery rests, an unusual and unpredicted change takes place before Naokiâs eyes. Will the sake brewery be turned around when the drops of liquid of their quest flow?
