The film's strengths lie in its meticulous animation and attention to detail. The visuals depict the distillery's scenes and objects in great detail. Additionally, the film references many real-world landscapes, giving viewers a sense of being there. The story is also heartwarming and healing. Although the Komata family has experienced a series of difficulties, they have all worked hard to overcome them, and finally successfully revived the "Dokuroku" whiskey. However, there are also some flaws. First, the characters are somewhat thin. Although their personalities are distinctive, they lack sufficient depth, making it difficult to understand their inner world truly. Without enough emotional twists, it is difficultto resonate or sympathize with them.

In addition, the explanations and introductions of alcohol, whiskey, and distilleries are also somewhat insufficient. The film mentions the process of making whiskey, but does not delve into the history, culture, and tasting methods of whiskey. This may be a bit of a disappointment for viewers interested in whiskey.

Overall, it is a well-made animated film. Although it needs to be strengthened in terms of character design, the heartwarming and healing story, and the realistic and detailed visuals are still worth watching.
