In a recent letter we proposed a new non-thermal mechanism of Dark Matter production based on vacuum misalignment, where both the Higgs boson and a very light pseudo-scalar η emerge from the Dark sector. In this letter, we identify the parameter space in a composite scenario where the light pseudo-scalar can be produced in the sun and explain the XENON1T excess in electron recoil data. The model's Dark Matter candidate has a mass around 50 TeV and out of range for Direct Detection. Testable predictions include Gravitational waves at frequencies in the Hz range from a cosmological phase transition, an exotic decay Z→γ+\mboxinv. with rates 4÷16⋅10−12 testable at a future Tera-Z collider, and an enhancement by 17÷40 % of the branching ratio KL→π0+\mboxinv., not enough to explain the KOTO anomaly. All these predictions may be confirmed by future experiments.
