About this product

Coca-Cola Original Taste in the one-litre refillable PET bottle sold in Germany. Coca-Cola's German site describes this 1.0 litre PET Mehrweg bottle as sold singly or in a mixed crate, refilled many times over, with green information arrows on the label showing which bottles are refilled and which recycled.[2] An Essen drinks retailer lists it under this barcode at EUR 1.80 plus a EUR 0.15 deposit, gives the legal denomination as a caffeinated soft drink with plant extracts, and has stocked it since February 2015.[1] The old Barcodepedia page for the same number already described a 1 l PET bottle of Coca-Cola in 2010.[3]

More about this product

Every photographed label is German only. The 2015 back labels print "MEHRWEGFLASCHE PFAND ZURÜCK", the claims "NATÜRLICHE AROMEN", "OHNE ZUGESETZTE KONSERVIERUNGSSTOFFE" and "SEIT 1886", and name Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke AG of Postfach 67 01 56, Berlin, selling the drink "Mit Genehmigung von THE COCA-COLA COMPANY"; one of them also carries a Christmas-truck competition running from 10 November to 15 December 2015.[4] That company is now Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Deutschland GmbH, registered at Charlottenburg under HRB 173624 B, and the retailer's data sheet still carries the old name, so every available source for the operator is out of date.[5][6][1]

The ingredient wording has moved twice. Labels photographed in 2015 and in April 2025 read "natürliches Aroma, Aroma Koffein", while photographs from 2021 and 2022 read "natürliches Aroma inklusive Koffein", so the caffeine was folded into the flavouring and later separated out again. All three generations are kept, dated by the photographs rather than by any announced change.[4] The nutrition declaration has not moved at all: every photographed panel prints 180 kJ and 42 kcal per 100 ml with 10.6 g of sugars, and a second column per 250 ml glass, four to the litre, giving 450 kJ, 105 kcal and 27 g of sugars.[4] The zeros for fat, saturates, protein and salt are printed values.[4]

Two things this barcode is not. Open Food Facts records its quantity as "12l", which is the twelve-bottle crate the retailer lists, not the bottle, and it holds the label artwork numbers beside the barcode as a packaging code; they are not an oval identification mark, so no country of origin is claimed.[7] France is tagged there too, but no photographed label or listing supports it.[7]

Coverage & research gaps (13)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 4 / 4 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 2 / 4 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • German label with caffeine inside the flavouring: nutrient evidence: 16 / 16 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • 2015 label for Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke AG: nutrient evidence: 8 / 8 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • relationships · stale: Every source naming the German operator is out of date: the 2015 labels say Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke AG and the retailer data sheet still says the same at Stralauer Allee 4, while the company is now Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Deutschland GmbH. No photographed label since 2015 shows an address block
  • images · disputed: The largest upload, and the one the lookup proposes as the front, is a seasonal Christmas label rather than the standard one, so it was not adopted as the page's front photo
  • identity · not_applicable: Open Food Facts records the quantity as 12l, which is the twelve-bottle crate the retailer lists as Kasten 12 x 1 l, not the bottle
  • packaging · not_applicable: The codes ee 60105991, ee 60107543 and EE-60114114 that Open Food Facts holds as packaging codes are label artwork numbers printed beside the barcode, not an oval identification mark, so they give no country of origin
  • markets · unknown: Open Food Facts tags France as well as Germany, but every photographed label is German only and no French listing of this barcode was found
  • ingredients · unknown: The three label generations are ordered by photograph upload date, not by any dated change: the wording moved from Aroma Koffein in 2015 to natürliches Aroma inklusive Koffein by 2021 and back to Aroma Koffein by 2025
