This is the Love Oolong Time ($9.50) from Seeker, featuring oolong miso butterscotch, espresso freddo, and black sesame.

The drink presented with clear stratification: a light tan base, a similarly thick white layer above it, and a deeper tan layer occupying the upper two-thirds, finished with a dusting of black.

When consumed fully mixed, it delivered a striking interplay of flavours from the outset while remaining firmly grounded as a coffee. The coffee profile was confident and aromatic, enriched by the nuttiness of black sesame and given a smooth, rounded texture by Jersey milk. As each sip settled, the profile unfolded gradually, revealing the toasted character of the oolong woven through the gentle savoury note of the miso butterscotch. This produced a balanced, comforting depth often associated with butterscotch, yet without the cloying sweetness that commonly accompanies it.

Overall, the drink offered sustained interest and balance, one that invites repeated orders.

This Love Oolong Time was purchased from Seeker in Sydney, Australia in December 2025.
