A Taste of Peru's History
Kola Escocesa has a long history in Peru. It started being made in the 1950s. This means it has been a favorite drink for many generations. The company, Yura, uses water from its own sources. This makes the soda taste unique.
Bottles and Flavors
Kola Escocesa comes in different types of bottles. You can find it in plastic bottles. These are available in sizes like 440 ml, 600 ml, and 1.5 litres. The plastic bottles are clear. They have a bright red label.
The soda also comes in glass bottles. These glass bottles are clear too. They have white writing printed right on the glass. Glass bottles are available in 600 ml and 1.5 litres sizes.
There is also a special version called "light." This light version has no sugar. Plastic bottles of the light soda have a red label that fades to white at the bottom. The word "light" is also on the label instead of "clasica."
