Bula

Manufacturer's Brand Overview [Edit]

THE DRINK: "Bula" Beverage, emerges as a relaxation and calming drink. Bula is a functional relaxation drink and is not age restricted. Bula's formula contains: Kava root, Valerian root, Rose Hip, and essential B Vitamins. Kava root stems from the pepper tree family and contains relaxing properties that have been known to help with anxiety and depression. Kava has been an integral part of ceremonial and social gatherings in the South Pacific cultures for thousands of years. Kava is also used to symbolize unity and promote a level mind when in discussion. Valerian root has been promoted to help with sleep quality and insomnia reduction. Rose-hip fruit, rich in Vitamin-C, yields health benefits and has been known in many cultures to treat health conditions such as: osteoporosis, arthritis, Crohn's disease, influenza, the common cold, and heart disease. Bula's savoring pomegranate flavor was selected from 200 flavors as part of a rigorous taste test. This included selected bartenders, public figures, night club and relaxation-related business owners, as well as the public. Not only does Bula capture the relaxation components of Kava, it also brings in a new, refreshing, and enjoyable taste. THE COMPANY: Bula was founded by New York Jet #91, Sione Pouha. Sione has been playing Defensive tackle for the Jets for the past 6 seasons. Sione treasures the benefits of Bula and relaxation on and off the football field. He developed the idea for Bula after learning that Kava's benefits of steady, controlled, and focused workouts showed more value to his performance on the field than workouts ampted by energy supplements. "Not only does Bula help me stay focused at home, work, and play, but it also helps me unwind after an eventful day of life". Sione's heritage is from the Island Kingdom of Tonga. Tonga shares the vast ocean of the South Pacific with its brothers and sisters of Samoa, Fiji, Hawaii, Tahiti, Aotearoa, and others. These islands all create the beautiful islands of Polynesia. With the help from an internationally acclaimed beverage manufacturer (the makers of Jones Soda), Sione has combined the drink of the South Pacific, Kava, with Bula. Together, they bring your customers a great taste and safe way to drink and relax.

Bula

Product Type:Functional: Relaxation Drink; Container: 12 oz Can
BevNET Review: Bula is a relaxation drink that's fueled by kava, rose hips, and valerian root. It utilizes a mellow berry flavoring that's sweetened with a blend of sugar and sucralose to the tune of 80 calories and 20g of sugar per 12 ounce can. Ultimately, the flavor is very reminiscent of an energy drink, especially when you factor in the slight bite at the finish. But of course, this is a drink that's designed to relax, calm, and sooth you — so there's no caffeine. As for the efficacy of this product, it's hard to really say how well it works compared to other relaxation drinks. However, the flavor is definitely more tolerable than some of the other products in this category that we've sampled. On the outside, we think they've got some work to do, with confusing positioning and visual execution that doesn't help it pop off the shelf. More specifically, we think that putting "dietary supplement" running vertically down the front panel is a big mistake, especially since it offers nothing in terms of helping the consumer understand what's inside the can. We'd say the same about their placement of words like "fresh" and "calming" around the top of the can — they need to be more direct. Plus, the font choice is a bad one, especially since the text is vertical and, therefore, makes this font even harder to read. Overall, what's inside the can is actually pretty good, but the outside definitely needs help.Reviewed on: 12/15/2010
