Before companies commit to a full-scale release, they usually find specific markets to do little test runs of their products in.
After all, it would suck in a pretty major way to go through all the trouble of unleashing a drink on a public that universally hates the taste of it.

And Coca Cola's newest release serves as a perfect example of this.
