Fentiman's Ad for the century-old soft drink is based a unique property - the need to turn the bottle to release the full botanically brewed flavour. To unlock the full refreshing taste of a Fentiman's botanically brewed beverage, simply hold the bottle in your hand and with one good turn of the wrist invigorate the ingredients that lie dormant at the bottom of the bottle. The beverage is now primed for your taste-buds. Just twist the crown, pour gently and satisfy yourself that Victorians knew the real meaning of taste.
