This is the White Champaca Matcha from Molly Tea ($8.90, 70% sweetness, less ice), featuring white champaca scented green tea base for the milk tea topped with matcha milk foam.
The beverage had a gentle gradient, with an off-white base fading into a vivid green layer. When consumed chilled, it opened with light, floral, and subtly lemony notes of white champaca (magnolia), carrying a smooth, rounded character. As the matcha gradually blended through, the drink developed a creamier texture and thicker mouthfeel. However, the grassy vibrancy of the matcha tended to overshadow the delicate floral nuance of the white champaca. The matcha itself was well-balanced—smooth, rich, and free from bitterness or astringency.
Overall, an elegant and visually appealing beverage with a refined matcha component, though the floral subtleties of the white champaca were somewhat lost in the blend.
This White Champaca Matcha was purchased from Molly Tea in Sydney, Australia in November 2025.
