Ginseng Up Root Beer

So this company actually produces the soda for many other brands, but have just recently finally started making their own personal recipe with their own branding. And ginseng of course. I do like their tagline, “The Root of All Power.” it would be better if it was “The Root of ALL Power” but maybe that is just me. Anyway… You don’t see many root beers in this shorter, squatter bottle, but I like the unique so they get a little bonus for that. the color scheme is also unusual, with a lot of black and a bit of gold, white and brown, there by venturing away from the usual brown/orange domination. I like also that it is all natural, I have been a bit concerned lately about things I read about caramel color so a soda with a natural source of it might be a better thing, I hope.
The soda has a fairly unique taste, that is a plus. It is not the best taste ever though it is decent. it is a sort of fruity thing going on, maybe it is the herbal-ness. I was hoping the wintergreen and clove would shine through more but I can’t say I even taste them at all. I am not sure what ginseng tastes like, if anything so perhaps that adds the unusual flavor here. it is good that they experimented a bit and perhaps learned from their clients’ formulas and recipes about what works and what does not as well as what would make them different. the ginseng is different, a couple of the “energy” root beers have it but i don’t think they tout this as an energy drink in any way. it does taste good, but nothing amazing.
