The grandson of the legendary bath master (played by Masahiro Nagashima), Nagamura Ranmaru (played by Osamu Mukai), appears to be just an ordinary sunny boy, but he possesses a magical tongue with 'absolute taste sensation' that can effortlessly distinguish the components of substances. However, his special tongue has not brought him much luck in love, as he instinctively analyzes the ingredients in his partner's mouth when kissing. It is not until the day his grandfather passes away that he first tastes the sweetness of love from the mysterious hot spring geisha, Aya. After that, to find the elusive Aya, he embarks on a long journey through the hot springs with the chatterbox and critic, Kuniyasu Hiroshi (played by Jiro Sato), and the antique dealer, Tsukubakuka Mitsugu (played by Fumino Kimura), who loves to role-play as a police detective from a two-hour crime drama. In various hot spring resorts, Ranmaru repeatedly comes up empty-handed while simultaneously getting involved in mysterious and bizarre murder cases...
