Ghost in the Shell was first serialized in 1989 in Young Magazine Zokan Kaizokuban, and the manga series has inspired a number of anime series, live-action films, 3DCG series, and many other works. In 2020, Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 premiered on Netflix worldwide, and takes place in the year 2045. Motoko Kusanagi, a cyborg, leads Public Security Section 9 and must stop crimes being committed by “Post Humans” while unraveling a massive conspiracy. The second season premiered in May 2022. The previous release of Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 sold extremely well, leading to this second release. Whiskey critic Hideo Yamaoka chose the single malt Balmenach 1989, distilled in April 1989, the year of the original manga release, as well as the 1988 Invergordon. The Balmenach Distillery is known for producing whiskey with strong aromas and flavors. Many haven’t heard of it, however, as it typically acts as the source for many blended whiskeys around the world, and official single malt releases are rare. The Balmenach 1989 release is well-balanced with an orange taste and a slightly spicy finish. Invergordon Distillery is a grain distillery in the Highland region. Unlike malt whiskey, which is made exclusively from barley malt, grain whiskey is made from other grains such as wheat, giving it a more mild taste. Invergordon 1988 was finished in sherry casks, creating a beautiful combination of peat, sherry, and rich grains. Both of these whiskeys have been aged for over 30 years. How would you like to grab one of these for a special occasion?Information
