Cacao orchard, boutique, and hotel in one, Fu Wan makes fabulous, (mostly) tree-to-bar chocolate that's bagged multiple laurels at the International Chocolate Awards. You can buy bars, ice cream and drinks at their lovely boutique. Flavoured chocolate includes Thai curry shrimp in white chocolate and 70% dark with lychee. You can see the manufacturing process, from the trees and pods to drying and fermentation. If that wasn't enough, the upstairs gallery explains everything with bilingual infographics and samples to smell and taste.

　　Fu Wan also runs child-friendly chocolate-making workshops at NT$250 per person – cheaper for guests at their hotel and groups of eight. Email to book or for enquiries.
