I get that light chairs are handy for summer and easy to move around but during winter this kind of shit just won't cut it for me. Most places have a stools at the window, perhaps a few metal or thin wooden chairs scattered around the place but there's rarely couches or booths. We believe these products may represent a significant breach of the Code… by virtue of their flavour, they have the potential for particular appeal to under-18s. Whilst we do not believe that flavoured alcoholic drinks are inherently improper in their potential appeal, cola flavoured drinks and jaffa cake biscuits are sweet confectionery products which typically appeal to an audience below the age of 18. To blend cola or jaffa cake flavours with a very strong alcoholic product such as vodka brings the potential for that flavour to have a wide appeal whilst masking the drink’s strength. Oh, and here’s a fun note on the ingredients: “sugar, glucose syrup, acid, citric acid, natural flavour, colours: E104, E129, (E104, E129 may have an adverse effect on the activity and attention in children.”

Traditionally called “Kola Cubes”, they’re an old school British boiled sweet. Old as lemon sherbets, rhubarb & custard candies, and acid drops. The Brits have a rich history of beautiful hard candies (that they called “boiled sweets”), much like the US. But whereas we have Starlight mints and Brach’s butterscotch drops, they have actual delicious, interesting items. I’ve always been interested in Cola Cubes, because I love cola candy. But I’ve yet to find a great one. Until now? Further, the brand name ‘Stiffy’s’ brings with it undoubtedly equivocal connotations, either based on an overtly sexual reference, or a comment about the alcoholic strength of the drink. We believe the link to sexuality, and obvious attempt to glamorise the strength to represent a breach of the Code.” Complainant So I’m scratching my head a bit over here. These are far from “bad”, I just don’t think they’re worth buying.

The Panel then considered whether the brand name had associations with sexual success. It noted that the product had been subject to a similar complaint in 2004 and on that occasion the Panel had not upheld the complaint. The Panel, however, decided that, in view of the length of time that had since elapsed, it should not necessarily be bound by that precedent. The Panel considered it had to be responsive to changes in the prevailing climate in society and, in particular, to the more conservative attitudes that now existed towards alcohol promotion. The Panel noted that ‘stiffy’ was a common slang term for an erection and considered that the brand name therefore had strong sexual connotations; indeed, it noted that in the Panel’s decision on the previous complaint the company had been criticised for playing on these connotations in some of its marketing activity. It therefore concluded that the brand name suggested an association with sexual success and accordingly found the product in breach of Code paragraph 3.2(d). The company said that in developing the brand since then it had made regular use of the Portman Group’s Advisory Service and that the Advisory Service had raised no objection to the current bottle design in terms of colour, typeface, or the flavour name Kola Kubez. The company disputed that they had glamorised the strength of the drink and pointed out that, at 20% ABV, Stiffy’s was approximately half the strength of vodka.

the product] sounded rather irresponsible, particularly as it seemed to marketed for younger people…also, the drink comes in flavours like cola cubes, which I think makes it appealing to children.” –Member of the public, Shropshire Complainant First question, and this relates to all cola cubes: why are they red? No one knows. But they’re relatively large hard candies-each piece is kind of a mouthful, which is fine, I don’t discriminate on size. My issue with these, and every other cola cube I’ve had, is that they’re bland. The flavor is anything but in the forefront, it’s more of a gentle essence of cola, and a pretty sweet one at that. Accents is probably the most popular tea and coffee lounge in the city centre. It was created as an alcohol-free venue where people could chill out and socialise.I prefer my cola candies to have more zing, and to be a bit more complex. Cola has a lot of things going on in it, lots of spices, effervescence, and interesting flavors: to make a muted candy out of it doesn’t make sense to me, but it sure seems to for the Brexiters. I mean, they have to like these, right? They’ve existed for well over 50 years & haven’t seemed to change at all.
