I'm not a fan of this company after the stunt where they sold tap water in bottles so it's no surprise to find this is a cheap tasting soft drink - it probably is cheap for them to make despite the high price tag they pass over to the consumer. Fortunately for us consumers though, you won't find this adorning the shelves of most local shops or supermarkets thanks to it's general unpopularity. In fact one of the few places I know of that continue to sell it is Virgin Airways, in which case you're best off flyi...more

If you like Coca Cola, you probably won't be a fan of Virgin's cheapy take on it! This is a fizzy cola drink very similar to the popular brand most of us know but for some reason, this has a chemical after taste to it and doesn't stay fizzy as long as Coca Cola does no matter how carefully you store it. I'm not a fan of this company after the stunt where they sold tap water in bottles so it's no surprise to find this is a cheap tasting soft drink - it probably is cheap for them to make despite the high price tag they pass over to the consumer.

In 1994 the crazy man that is Richard Branson released Virgin cola on us, now usually I would have nothing against having a virgin released upon me but this stuff that was designed to take on the American giants, Coke and Pepsi leaves a lot to be desired. For me Virgin cola is just another cheap version of Coke and Pepsi, no better or no worse than the many stores own brand versions that are floating about. It goes flat too quickly after opening, it has a poor imitation cola taste and it is not all that much cheaper than the big two so why bother with it in the first place. It was announced as the cola drink of the people but then that is how good ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Like a Virgin Cola? (358 words)

Richard Bransons company originally launched Virgin Cola in 1994 with the intention of rivalling the American giants, even going so far as to drive a tank through New Yorks Time Square in a marketing campaign and launching 'The Pammy', a bottle shape modelled on the body of Pamela Anderson. Although the Virgin brand is well established around the world, Branson admits that cola is one of the less succesful Virgin ventures. Princes have produced, marketed and distributed Virgin Cola under franchise since 2002 in the UK, and relaunched the product in 2004 with the 'great new taste' campaign, in which taste tests were undertaken that showed people preferred Virgin to other ...  Read the complete review
