Experience the award-winning craft of Fu Wan Chocolate. This 62% tree-to-bar bar fuses Taiwanese Ping Tung cacao with aromatic Tieguanyin tea leaves.
Fu Wan Chocolate is a pioneering artisan producer based in Ping Tung, Taiwan. Operating on a tree-to-bar model, the maker maintains a deep connection to the local land by sourcing cacao directly from the tropical groves of Ping Tung. This commitment to origin highlights a unique Taiwanese identity within the global fine chocolate landscape, earning them consistent recognition at the International Chocolate Awards since 2018.
The Taiwan Tie-Guan-Yin Tea 62% is a masterclass in infusion. Crafted with 62% cacao, cane sugar, and high-quality Tieguanyin tea, the bar undergoes a precise refining process in a melanger to achieve its signature texture. The sensory experience is remarkably complex, unfolding with herbal notes of bayleaf, fennel seed, and clove, followed by cooling mint, subtle tropical guava, and the delicate, lingering perfume of orchid.
Quality begins at the farm for Fu Wan. Their protocol centers on a meticulous tree-to-bar approach, utilizing traditional wooden box fermentation and careful sun-drying of the beans to coax the most nuanced flavors from the Ping Tung harvest. By keeping every step of production in-house, from raw bean to the final 45-gram bar, the maker preserves the integrity of the local terroir while highlighting the aromatic profile of the traditional tea infusion.
