Fentimans Curiosity Cola

[Andrew[MG]]

Do any of the supermarkets sell this? I tried it last month and fancy getting a few bottles for the house but haven't seen it for sale anywhere. Has anyone spotted it for sale?

[Grey Ghost]

The John Lewis food store in Bluewater have a lot of Fentiman's stuff so would assume that Waitrose would be a sound bet as well.

[AndyAudi]

Tesco's used to sell it, also Ginger Beer.

[SVX]

Tescos and Sainsburys both stock the complete Fentimans range...

[sonic_2k_uk]

Booths also. Try the lemonade as well, and the orange one!

[Chocmonster]

I've bought their Dandelion & Burdock in Morrisons before.

[ArtVandelay]

Bought a cola today in Morrison's and Fenwick's get it in too.

Find the cola is the hardest to get hold out of whereas it's easy to get the ginger beer.

[Big_Dog]

I buy the Dandelion and Burdock from Ocado. Pretty sure they have the whole range.

[Shaolin]

Waitrose do it. I tried one and wished I hadn't bothered - over priced and unimpressive.

[Silent1]

They sell it online themselves IIRC for a lot lower than most shops.

[Andrew[MG]]

Cheers guys, I'll go hunting for it again tonight.

I don't see it for sale on their own website.

[JB!]

the ginger beer is nice.

[mcflurry]

IMHO the cola reminds me of Soda stream cola

I went to a market this morning (Chelford) and a bloke was there selling it at 3 for a quid which I thought sounded quite reasonable. If it's any good, I'll be back next week to liberate his entire stock.

They're usually over a pound a bottle!

fking hell, really?? I wouldn't pay that for it. In fact, I think I prefer Coke.

Most people when offered a class a or a fizzy drink will choose the former.

[ArtVandelay]

I think I like it mostly because it's seen as more of a treat. I can have Coke or Pepsi whenever I want but rarely have a bottle of Fentiman's. I do prefer the taste but suspect that familiarity with it would make me go back to Coke.

That's it exactly!

For those of you that like Fentimans D&B like I do, miles ahead of anything you can buy in a large platic bottle from a super market May I recomend something even better by a long way.

Try these people, its like fentimans turned up to 11 you can actually taste the dandylion

they also make root beer and ginger beer but I have not tried those.

Nice wax bottles as well for that retro touch.

very expensive though but worth it in my opinion for a treat.
