Kofola's liquorice flavor is an acquired taste, but it's one that's worth acquiring. It actually goes in the very small category of sodas I will drink (along with diet coke and sprite when I'm sick). I once ordered 10 decibels of Kofola (instead of deciliters) to my great embarrassment and the Slovaks' great amusement ("Would you like some loud Kofola, Emily?"). This economist article on nostalgia in the former Czechoslovakia is quite good and reminds me of the communist era candies we ate in Romania, while complaining about everything else about communism.(picture)
