This is the Nescafe Gold Oat Latte, which is part of their new plant-based range of instant coffees.
Each sachet was a powdered coffee blend of Robusta and Arabica and finely milled oats.
Preparing one 16 g sachet with 200 mL of water at 85ºC, the beverage had an initial aroma of instant coffee before the smell of oats took over. Served hot, the beverage tasted like oat milk flavoured with a hint of coffee that came through as a moderately pronounced bitterness in the finish. The mouthfeel was smooth without grittiness, but also thin and almost watery. The richness of the coffee — by all accounts, a bold flavour — was overwhelmed by the flavours delivered in the plant-based milk base.
This Nescafe Gold Oat Latte contained 96 g or 6 serves. It was produced in France and received as a sample in Sydney, Australia in 2021.
