ANNNNNNDDDD

It goes great with my Padron 1926 maduro.

OK, so where do you get it from? Is it Coca-Cola, or some other brand? Picture of it?

Thanks.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

It's official Coca-cola, alright. It's bottled in Mexico instead of the US. I have no idea how it ended up in my local big box. It has Mexican labeling with english stickers on it. It's the first I've seen it and I'm glad I did. Expensive though. $18 for a case of 24 12oz bottles. OH! that's another thing that makes it better. The bottles are GLASS!

It's standard cola, only bottled in a non-US country. US is the only place that uses high fructose corn syrup instead of cane sugar. Living in the Seattle area, occasionally, I see Coca-Cola from Canada and it uses cane sugar as well--there IS a difference.

The reason why we use corn syrup: corn subsidies and sugar tariffs, which makes corn syrup cheaper for the manufacturers.
