It's been out for about 5 years. Which would make it new for people from Redruth......

Can't say I've seen it before, either. I'm not a fan of orangey drinks anyway :(

Aw. If it's any consolation though, I feel sick now.

Waitrose news.

They appear to have moved the Fentimans products so they are now with the juices/health drinks. Fuck knows why and they have less shelf space. But hoorah anyway, at least they aren't stopping stocking it.

I found this out in-store, they never replied to my email.

I've posted this in the bargains thread, but you can get two bottles of Fentimans for £1.22 at Ocado at the moment, which possibly means you can do the same if you walk into Waitrose. Stock up!

They are reduced in store, but not by that much. Think they are something like 75p each in store at the moment.

I'm trying my first bottle of Fentimans cola. It needs to be twice as fizzy. Unless my bottle is just unusually flat or something, this is a deliciously fragrant, very 'balanced' sweet flavour... but it has absolutely no bite. It's missing something at the 'end' of the taste.


Add your own Phosphoric acid to "pimp" this cola.

Just checked. It's 2 for £1.70 so you save 48p a pair.

Indeedily do.

I just had one of their chocolate binliner doughnuts and a bottle of Fentimans and the sun isn't even over the yard arm!

:D

I've got to walk past Waitrose on the way to the bank later (Barclays North end road fact fans!) and that seems like a dashed good plan.
