He was one of the most successful pharmacists and chemists of his time in Atlanta, Georgia, and he had created several widely distributed products before he began to work on his cola idea. Coca-Cola, moreover, had a famous European predecessor; it did not emerge in a moment of serendipity in Pemberton's laboratory.
“He's occasionally portrayed as a wandering medicine man,” researcher Monroe Martin King told Jack Hayes of Nation's Restaurant News. “But Dr. Pemberton worked in a fully outfitted laboratory and claimed to manufacture every chemical and pharmaceutical preparation used in the arts and sciences.” In spite of his other accomplishments, however, Pemberton would probably be forgotten today were it not for his connection with the ubiquitous drink later dubbed the pause that refreshes.
