Coca-Cola Sparkling Cherry Flavour Soft Drink, 330, Vegetarian

Bad smell and bad taste

First, the can is purple and looked nothing like the photo on the product page. I don't know if it's a duplicate or not. As for the packaging, it was good. It was wrapped in bubble wrap and had no leakages. Now, what was the taste like? It tasted the same as our regular Coke. It only had an aftertaste hint of cherry. If you don't have the sharp taste of a seasoned foodie who can tell apart flavor profiles, you might even miss it. It's very mild. Overall, it's a pleasant drink, just like the regular Coke, but is it worth paying 8x the cost of a regular Coke for a hint of mild cherry taste? No. It's all just import fees, I suppose. Drink itself is not that much different from the regular Coke we get at local stores, and in all likelihood, you won't be able to tell the difference. If the cherry taste was supposed to be more apparent, then I got a duplicate.

Tasted like some sort of cleaning agent

Not as tasty as I'd expected. The sugar taste was weird. Probably because we've grown up drinking Indian coke for decades. Product quality was good though.
