Real sugar is a start, but I have no time for a cola without kola nut flavor. Once you check out a real cola, you'll recognize the big brands for what they are.

Padron is to Macanudo as real cola is to Coke and Pepsi.

Please advise as to where one can obtain cola with real kola nut flavor. I've always wanted to try some. Also, Macanudo may not be your preference but it is a real, hand made cigar. Wouldn't it be more like Padron to Swisher Sweet, etc.?

Tried Target today with no luck. I'll check out Nob Hill manana. That's where I finally found Pepsi Throwback before.

Well, like the post I quoted, I recommend Blue Sky. You can find it in many "health" food sections and at co-ops. If you live near a Whole Foods, you can find my personal fave, 365 Cola. It's their house brand. It's delicious, all natural, real sugar and lots of kola nut and it's freakin' cheap, too.

At the end of the day, a good cola's still a can of sweet fizzy-water, too. Your analogy is fine, but I stand by mine. Padron and Macanudo have similar texture, size and burn characteristics. From most aesthetic angles, they're pretty much the same- but one has 10 times the flavor of the other.
