Yardstick Reopens Their OG Legazpi Village Branch With a "Flavor Bar" + Exclusives
Here's the deal on the Auro Chocolate x Yardstick collaboration:
Yardstick and Auro Chocolate have come up with the Flat White bar—essentially the flavors and essence of a classic flat white beverage in the form of a dreamy chocolate bar. With Auro's 40% white chocolate as a base, it's got a rich, velvety melt—this is real cacao butter after all (and a higher percentage than your average white chocolate bar). Creamy as the backdrop is, it's also decidedly roasted, nutty, and somewhat caramelized in flavor from being infused with Yardstick's signature Golden Ticket coffee blend—plus it's studded with finely ground coffee beans for a subtle (and welcome) crunch.
Each 60-gram bar goes for P290 and stocks are limited, so you'll want to get yours, stat! This is available for purchase from Auro's online store, or at your nearest Yardstick outpost.
Auro Chocolate is a proudly Filipino company that was launched in 2015. They make bean-to-bar chocolate with cacao beans sourced directly from farming partners in Mindanao. They also opened the Auro Chocolate Café in BGC in 2022.
Yardstick, on the other hand, is a homegrown specialty coffee shop that made its debut in Legazpi Village, Makati and has since opened nooks in Salcedo Village and The Podium, and a full-fledged branch at the Mall of Asia. Aside from serving ready-to-drink coffee beverages at their cafés, they also sell coffee bean blends and equipment.
