Only Original — Our Story
Some companies are built for profit. Some for passion. Only Original was built as a promise — to a man who gave everything he had to the people around him, and asked for nothing in return.
In Memoriam
Sir Clifford Andrew Dragwidge
There are teachers who teach subjects. And then there are the rare ones — the ones who teach you how to live, how to think, how to keep going when the easier path is to stop.
Sir Clifford Andrew Dragwidge was the second kind. He didn't just stand in front of a classroom. He stood beside the people he believed in — guiding quietly, nurturing patiently, and giving generously of the one thing no one can get back: his time.
"Life's like a football game — when you're winning, everything seems fine, but true character shows when things aren't going your way. Don't blame the ground or the referee; get up, take control and face it head on."
— Sir Clifford Andrew Dragwidge
Clifford Creations Private Limited was named in his honour. Not as a monument — but as a living continuation of everything he stood for. The curiosity. The care. The belief that doing things with integrity is always worth the effort.
His Words
"Life's like a football game — when you're winning, everything seems fine, but true character shows when things aren't going your way. Don't blame the ground or the referee; get up, take control and face it head on."— Sir Clifford Andrew Dragwidge
"Only Original is not just a drink.— The Only Original Team
It is a reminder that who shaped you
never really leaves."
Why Only Original
Zero added sugar. No artificial sweeteners. No artificial colours. Every ingredient earns its place — or it doesn't make the cut. Sir Clifford never cut corners. Neither do we.
Real flavours. Real fruit profiles. A prebiotic formula your gut actually benefits from. We make something genuine because we were taught by someone genuine.
Sir Clifford's influence didn't fade with time — it grew. We build Only Original the same way. Decisions made for the long run, not the quick win.
The Journey
The Beginning
Long before there was a company or a product, there was a relationship built on trust, patience, and the kind of mentorship that changes the direction of a life.

Some people leave a gap when they go. Sir Clifford left something larger — a standard. A way of being. The question that stayed: how do you honour that properly?

Two years of carrying his memory quietly. Then came the decision — to build something in his name. Not just a business, but a living tribute. The name on the registration is the name on the heart.

2024
What should this company make? Something people consume every day. Something most brands get wrong. A drink — with no added sugar, no shortcuts, no compromise. The brief wrote itself.
2025
Real prebiotic formulation. Real fruit profiles. Zesty Nimbu, Aam Rus, Tropi Co-Co — each flavour tested, refined, and tested again. Nothing went out the door until it was genuinely good. He wouldn't have had it any other way.

No soda. No sugar. No compromises. Three flavours, one standard — his standard. Four years after losing him, the drink that carries his legacy finally launches. Worth every moment of the wait.
Now
Every can that leaves our hands carries the weight of a name and a legacy. We don't take that lightly. We never will.

A Promise
Clifford Creations Private Limited exists because one man spent years
giving the best of himself to the people around him.
Only Original exists because that kind of giving
deserves to be remembered — not just in words,
but in something you can hold, open, and taste.
Every sip is a small act of gratitude.
Every can that goes out into the world carries his name forward.
That's not marketing. That's the truth.
