Coca-Cola in Italy uses a difference source of water and purification process than that used in the US, even though the guidelines for water purification is the same due to variations also in equipment.

Different places different tastes. In Canada, Coke is much stronger and made with real sugar, not corn syrup that has been chemically modified like in the USA.

The Italian one may be tweaked to suit Italian tastes... OR... they may be using real can sugar in Italy, and high fructose corn syrup in the US.
