About the bar
This bar, despite having an unpleasant name, is a wonderfully flavoured tea chocolate. Ya Shi Xiang (literally translated to Duck Shit) is a dancong tea cultivated in the Phoenix Mountain of Guangdong Province. The story goes that the farmer, in an attempt to hide the secret to his delicious tea, gave it an unpleasant name and it stuck. The bar has notes of longan and malt, with a long floral finish.
About the maker
The fossa is a cat-like mammal indigenous to Madagascar, just like the craft chocolate Yilina and Jay tasted years ago that first started their chocolate journey. Yilina and Jay’s first taste of craft chocolate was a Madagascan dark bar, and they were instantly hit by wonderful flavours of refreshingly tart raspberries and warm almonds. This moment opened the pair’s eyes to how craft chocolate can have such flavour clarity – so different from the normal mass-produced industrial chocolate they grew up with.

What do other people who've discovered Fossa - "Duck Shit" Dancong, Dark Milk 51% have to say?
Dark tea bar. Of course we were scared to try this with sh** in tómame. However, it is a well balanced, good bar if you like black tea. We enjoyed it. Would buy it again.
