"Visually stunning and effortlessly entertaining… To top it off, reading Drops is a trippy literary experience… Don't be surprised if you crush this book in one night. It's pretty impossible to put down once you pick it up." -Bottlenotes ( The Daily Sip ) "I have already ordered the second volume (out in December) and I guess that in terms of reviews that is a definitive statement." - Wine Psych "Presents some complex wine topics in an easy to understand manner, without talking down to the consumer… I urge all wine lovers to take a look, with an open mind, at The Drops of God . Give it a chance and you might be surprised at how much you enjoy it." - The Passionate Foodie "Penchants for French wines drive the selection of vinos described with dramatic, often fanatical detail." - Wine Enthusiast "Through the dramas of their wine-drinking characters, [Tadashi Agi] instructs readers on how to taste wine. It's hilarious, for sure, when a young woman swoons over a man's decanting skills, but it's also a great way to draw attention to the technical proficiency of a beautiful pour without getting too technical.

And that's what's truly extraordinary about Drops of God : It makes learning about wine-which, let's face it, can be a totally tedious thing for the non-obsessed-really fun… Seriously, this is juicy stuff!" - GILT "This is not only an influential wine book in Japan (and France) but is a gem of a find-something that is out-of-the-ordinary, yet based on serious wine understanding, i.e. that wine is a living thing and the memories that fine wines can evoke. It is a real page turner!" - WEINGARTEN.
