Aged Oolong Tea Dark Chocolate 62%

Fu Wan Chocolate, located in the Pingtung region of Taiwan, operates as a dedicated tree-to-bar maker. This specific classification signifies that they oversee the entire lifecycle of the cacao, from the local groves to the final 45-gram bar. By focusing on regional agriculture, they have established themselves as a pivotal figure in the Taiwanese craft chocolate movement, emphasizing the unique terroir of the island's southern tip.

The Aged Oolong Tea Dark Chocolate 62% is a sophisticated marriage of Pingtung cacao liquor and fine oolong tea powder. The sensory experience is notably diverse, presenting initial notes of coconut and orange jasmine that evolve into richer flavors of raisin, almond, and black sesame. This complexity is achieved through a meticulous wooden box fermentation and a specialized aging process for the beans, ensuring a refined depth in every bite.

Integrity of ingredients is central to this producer's philosophy. The formulation is intentionally minimal, containing no lecithin, vanillin, or vegetable fats. This commitment to purity and regional craftsmanship has earned the bar significant international acclaim, including Silver awards at the International Chocolate Awards for both the Asia-Pacific 2021-22 and World 2024 competitions.
