A hiker has found an unopened 40-year-old Coke can on a mountain – and said it tasted like new after necking it.

He picked up the Coca-Cola, complete with ring pull and apparently produced in the 1980s, from the icy ground and took it home to try later.

The hiker, known online as Tori-chan, said he found the old can on Mount Kita in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan.

He said: “I found this old Coke can on the Okabasawa route on Mount Kita and it was still drinkable.

“It didn’t go flat and the ring-pull type was apparently produced until the 1980s.”

Tori-chan filmed himself opening the can.

He carefully removed the ring-pull before pouring the contents into a tumbler glass.

The drink still appears to be gassy and not discoloured in any way.

Tori-chan said he consumed the beverage and was surprised that it tasted as normal, as reported by What’s the Jam.

He added: “I was expecting some weird liquid to come out, but it looked like regular cola so I drank it.”

One local said: “If your stomach doesn’t hurt, that’s great!”

Another joked: “A few days later, Tori-chan’s behaviour began to change, and six months later the world was filled with sugar zombies.”

“It’s like nature’s very own time capsule,” said someone else.

Jinsei wrote: “That was brave. I was raised to never consume anything I found on the ground so I couldn’t do that!”

Gunkanmaki remarked: “Coke is acidic with a pH of 2.5 so it is less likely to spoil.”
