Kofola original

Kofola is a carbonated soft drink that originated in Communist-era Czechoslovakia during the 1960s as a domestic alternative to Western cola brands like Coca-Cola and Pepsi. It is characterized by its unique caffeine-containing syrup, Kofo, which is brewed from 14 natural ingredients including fruit extracts, herbs, and liquorice.

The brand has remained a cultural icon in Central Europe, particularly in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, where it remains one of the most popular beverages on the market. Production continues to be base in its home region, with major bottling plants located in places like Krnov and Rajecká Lesná. Today, the brand is owned by the Kofola ČeskoSlovensko Group, which has expanded its portfolio to include various juices, water brands, and health foods across the Adriatic and Central European regions.
