A single malt from "Sunset on Third Street" with the label "Akashi" will be made available to celebrate the Big Comic Original's 50th anniversary of debut. Hideo Yamaoka selected "Akashi" from Eigashima Distillery in Hyogo Prefecture as the whisky that would work well for the "Sunset on Third Street" label this time.
