The Drops of God live-action television series will be making its debut this month! The series is adapted from the Drops of God manga, which was written by Tadashi Agi and Shu Okimoto. On April 21, the international co-production will debut its mouthwatering drama about wine tasting on Apple TV+ around the world!
In the meantime, you can have a taste of the aged flavors by watching the new official teaser trailer below!
Formerly known as Vertical Inc., the company that is now known as Kodansha Comics began publishing The Drops of God in English in 2011 with the first four volumes. However, the fifth volume skipped ahead to compile volumes 22 and 23 of the Japanese release under the revised title Drops of God: New World to drive awareness of the series.
Kodansha describes the series below:
The award-winning comic about wine that has been a hit not just all over Asia but also in France! Learn about legendary bottles as well as affordable secrets while enjoying a page-turner that's not about superheroes but people with jobs to keep. When world-renowned wine critic Kanzaki passes away, his will reveals that his fortune of a wine collection isn't bequeathed as a matter of course to his only son, who in a snub went to work sales at a beer company. To come into the inheritance, Shizuku must identify—in competition with a stellar young critic—twelve heaven-sent wines whose impressions the will describes in flowing terms …
Quoc Dang Tran (Call My Agent) is writing, Oded Ruskin (episodes of Absentia, No Man's Land) is directing and the series stars Fleur Geffrier (Elle) and Tomohisa Yamashita (The Head).
