Love in Dunoon's American Years

First made commercially in Dunoon by George Stirling’s factory on Ferry Brae, cola has a fascinating local connection. Our Dunoon Goes POP cola is inspired by the story of the American years here in Dunoon. You can learn more at our fun and interactive soft drinks experience.


Margaret Parker's Lavender Lemonade
Our lavender lemonade is inspired by Margaret Parker (c 1847 to 1916), a local entrepreneur, dressmaker and designer who ran an outfitters shop for women and children on Argyll Street. Margaret Parker’s entrepreneurial spirit and design skills intrigued us! She was a businesswoman and a Royal Letters Patent holder for Anglo-Parisien dressmaking.

All of our Dunoon Goes POP soft drinks are inspired by local people (People of Place), so for a drink inspired by Margaret, we needed a botanical flavour which is synonymous with both France and Britain. Lavender was the best-fitting option!
