70% cocoa · dark chocolate · Taiwan
A sophisticated 70% dark chocolate from Fu Wan, utilizing double-fermented Taiwanese Trinitario beans for a complex profile of fruit and balsamico.
Their approach celebrates the specific terroir of Taiwan by working exclusively with local Trinitario cacao.
This bar is a masterclass in post harvest precision. The beans undergo an extensive 144 hour box fermentation process, enhanced by a double fermentation method that introduces specific yeasts and cultures. This intensive protocol coaxes vibrant, effervescent flavors from the cacao. The result is a rough ground 70% chocolate that reveals bright layers of strawberry and crisp apple, balanced by deep undertones of champagne, balsamico, and toasted nuts.
Purity remains a core tenet of the Fu Wan philosophy. The bar is crafted with a minimal ingredient list consisting solely of Taiwanese cocoa beans, sugar, and cocoa butter. By omitting additives like lecithin, vanillin, and non-cacao vegetable fats, the maker ensures that the intricate character of the Ping Tung harvest remains the focal point of the tasting experience.
