For some reason, reading this is really calming. It moves at a slower pace than the usual mangas.

@Purple Library Guy, you're quite right. The woman is clearly based on argentinian singer Mercedes Sosa. Her songs also became a gathering point for those who opposed the military regimes in Latin America in the 60's, 70's and 80's. The last lines of the chapter reference "Gracias a la vida", which is probably the most famous song of Mercedes Sosa

This is a manga for the soul. A manga that speaks about the various aspects of life. In life, there are many hardships. Sometimes, you can talk about these hardships with someone else.

I bet everyone that read it would have found a part where you felt close to your heart. This manga signifies life's hardships and tells you that there are people that understands and know your hardships out there.

A toast, to the Bartender.

Heeeey!! That's Mercedes Sosa!! at the very least the appeareance of "Maria Mendoza" is very much like her. However, until the next chapter I won't be able to check what her nationality, this character seems to be an exiled of some kind (Cuban probably) while Mercedes Sosa was from Argentina...

This would go over nice as a manga. Probably not to the cubbies for all they want to see is boobs, which I can understand. But I would watch something like this with strong story lines. Something unique they can do is introduce a new drink every episode, something similar to what the curry manga does.

Cool manga, but... dear translator, stop adding unpleasant comments on the pages. Maybe the author is bad at math and even at barending but it doesn't mean you must mishandle him. Please stop it. You read to much wiki and you think you know everything. It's pitiful.

Even though it's repetitive, I enjoy the story and learning about new drinks and how to make them. Very refreshing series. Only thing I'm now sure is how true the stories are behind every drink that is introduced.

Rezonance is absolutely right, but somehow I don't mind. Somehow I like the little drink-related stories and trite but fairly reasonable moral messages.

Gets repetitive over time. Bad situation + bartender makes specific drink + customers go "Oooh! This drink has a nice balance, etc. etc." + moral = plot of the whole thing
