na +1 | descent from heaven? |

descent from heaven? Explanation: amakudari usually means \"high-ranking government officials retiring from the office and obtaining executive posts in private firms with which they used to do business\". However, it does also mean \"descent from heaven.\" If the beverage is whisky or something like that, it may mean some space created at the top of the keg as a result of maturing. I need to see the actual sentence in which the word was used. |
