Fu Wan - Dark chocolate Ping Tung 62% with charcoal Oolong tea - TAIWAN - 35g
Tree-to-Bar
Fu Wan's 62% dark chocolate with aged (roasted) Oolong tea is a unique product that creates a distinct and rich aromatic profile that will appeal to tea lovers and fine chocolate enthusiasts alike.
Taiwan aged Oolong is a traditional Oolong tea, expertly roasted and matured in a controlled manner. Instead of being consumed fresh, it is stored in terracotta or ceramic jars for three to thirty years. Tea masters periodically roast the loose leaves over charcoal to remove moisture, which softens the tea's tannins and produces a deeply smooth and complex infusion.
Ping Tung cacao brings a perfectly mastered bitterness that complements the aromatic and slightly sweet notes of aged Oolong tea. This refreshing chocolate is absolutely exquisite in flavor, offering aromatic notes of coconut, orange blossom, jasmine, raisin, almond, and black sesame.
Grown, fermented, and produced by chocolatier Fu Wan, this multi-award-winning ultra-smooth bar offers a unique and truly exclusive tasting experience.
