Tumult

Tumult is a new adult fermented non-alcoholic drink made by Coca-Cola that has been specially crafted to be consumed with food. It pairs particularly well with sushi according to the experts, and is a great alco-alternative when served as an aperitif.Intended to brighten up social moments, Taxi Studio reflected this sentiment in the redesigned packaging by bringing joy and movement into the visual identity to compliment Tumult’s tumultuous character.Spencer Buck, one of Taxi’s creative directors says,  “We wanted to open Tumult up to a wider audience, so when we embarked on the redesign the brief to ourselves was to make it much more visible on shelf, sexier in the hand and light-hearted overall. The new design uses lively colours and a swirling cloud device, which references the drink’s fermented, ‘alive’ quality’.”Casey Sampson, Taxi’s senior designer says, “The device is called the ‘Sensorial Cloud’—as Tumult is a fermented non-alcoholic drink it’s basically alive, so we’ve attempted to bring that idea to life with the use of intricate swirls and swooshes which provides a lot of visual movement. Together with the refreshed logotype it’s now got a sense of permanence… a more iconic status.”Following on from the pack designs, Taxi Studio is now working on promotional and point of sale materials to communicate the brand benefits: 100% Freshness, 0% Added Sugar. The new Tumult packaging will initially launch in Paris next month.The Coca Cola Co has chosen France as the first launch market for its new 'brewed' soft drink, Tumult.The fermented, non-alcoholic drink is low-calorie and comes in 'fruit' and 'malt' flavours. It is pitched as an apéritif for consumers in the 30-45 age bracket, who appreciate good cuisine and restaurant dining.“Tumult has been wrongly described as an alcohol-free beer when in fact it is a sophisticated soft drink made from fermented fruit,” a Coca Cola France official told just-drinks today (11 August).For now, Tumult is only available in a few retail outlets in Paris. If successful it may launched nationwide and in other countries.
