Many people rely on a morning cup of coffee to stay alert, but daily purchases from convenience stores or coffee shops can add up. As a result, brewing instant or drip coffee at home has become a popular cost-saving choice among budget-conscious consumers. Recently, a netizen discovered a newly launched instant latte by Nestlé at PX Mart, sparking widespread attention after sharing their tasting experience online.

A user posted in the popular Facebook group 'I Love PX Mart – Honest Reviews' about finding a new instant coffee with a noticeably different packaging texture. After asking staff, they learned it was Nestlé Gold’s new '3-in-1 Latte'. The product is priced at NT$129 for 11 servings, averaging about NT$12 per cup.

The original poster noted that upon opening the sachet, a rich coffee aroma was immediately noticeable. When brewed with hot water, the taste was smooth and 'not too sweet', with a well-balanced ratio of coffee to milk. When served over ice as an iced latte, the flavor was described as 'on par with café-bought versions'. The reviewer emphasized that unlike many other instant lattes that are overly sweet or milk-heavy—often leading them to discard more than two-thirds—this new product successfully avoids those flaws.

After the post went viral, many netizens chimed in: 'Tried it last week—slightly sweet and delicious even iced', 'I’ve been drinking this every morning—it’s a joy to smell the aroma when opening the pack', and 'Nestlé Gold lattes are consistently good; rarely a dud'.

Other coffee brands were also recommended in the discussion: 'Dripo’s Japanese-made instant black coffee is great—smooth, no acidity, excellent even black', 'Mixing Moccona No. 10 Italian Roast with milk is amazing', 'UCC Master’s Green drip coffee has no sourness and a wonderful aroma', and 'Hsi Jui Organic Coffee, also sold at PX Mart, is mild and non-bitter—I’ve been drinking it for five years and have no plans to switch'.
