The Sichuan peppercorn is a Chinese spice at the heart of a style of cuisine known as má là—the famous combination of numbing and heat. The husks of the peppercorn contain a naturally occurring compound called hydroxy-alpha-sanshool, which creates an unmistakable tingling, buzzing, almost vibrating sensation on your tongue.
And that sensation changes the way you experience everything that follows.
While this chocolate bar is built around Sichuan peppercorn husks, there is much more happening beneath the surface. The chocolate itself is a blend of milk and dark chocolate, creating a rich, balanced base for cardamom and other warming spices that unfold as you eat.
The result is less like eating an ordinary chocolate bar and more like taking your palate on a journey. The flavors shift, the peppercorn tingles, the chocolate melts, and the experience seems to keep changing from one bite to the next.
This is a daring chocolate bar—not one designed to play it safe. If you have an adventurous palate and love discovering flavors you’ve never experienced in chocolate before, you absolutely need to try this one.

Personnellement l'aspect visuel d'un chocolat m'importe peu, mais je dois dire qu'il a reçu des compliments sur sa beauté de la part de mon meilleur ami avec qui je l'ai partagé. Le goût est vraiment unique et très réussi, littéralement extraordinaire. Un chocolat original et très savoureux.
This is a creative and brilliantly delicious candy bar. The sensation on your tongue is addictive
Amazing bar!!!!
This was an impulse purchase that I’m glad I made.
The bar was an interesting, unique, and delightful experience. The sichuan peppercorn gelled perfectly with the supporting spices, and the milk/dark chocolate blend was a satisfying balance of richness and sweetness.
The flavors (and sensations) were thoughtfully brought together for a fun and surprising experience.
It is a unique flavor of chocolate but I liked it a lot. The sichuan flavor comes through nice and the chocolate itself is delicious. It has a very nice snap, balance of spices, and is sweet enough to stand on its own. I personally am a fan of sichuan and this met my expectations and more.
