Glass bottles are part of the nostalgic image that Cool Mountain portrays. Glass preserves the taste, carbonation and keeps the beverage colder longer. Communicating quality and nostalgia in the cool long neck glass bottles.
What is the Cool Mountain appeal?
Nostalgic. The whole gourmet soda industry has prospered on phantom memory.
