Montezuma's Absolute Black, 100% Cocoa, Dark Chocolate, Gluten Free & Naturally Vegan, 90g Bar

As someone who loves a lot of sweets especially chocolate, I decided to challenge myself to try the 100% chocolate. My family laughed when they saw it and said I won’t be able to finish it, well I did in 3 days.I find the taste quite interesting. Since I love my coffee black, the bitterness was not too surprising.ProsVery chocolatey and melts in your tongueCurbs my cravingsGets me through that time of the month.It is very affordable and high quality with the same texture as normal chocolate.ConsTaste is unbearable when you chew, let it settle on tongue instead.I wish they sold a box of it

Love it .. once your taste buds adjust it’s actually very sweet & unlike high sugar chocolate you don’t want to eat it all at once . I kind of have it as a pick me up through the day . I regularly re order it now .Wouldn’t go back to standard chocolate. Lots of health benefits with such a high cocoa percentage too . So if you’re cutting out refined sugar and heavy processed foods I’d recommend this product as a sweet treat.

Love this stuff, strong and bitter. If you like dark chocolate you will like this, not for faint hearted who like sweet stuff though and great added to a homemade chilli

This is serious chocolate — 100% cocoa, no sugar, and no sweeteners. If you're expecting a traditional treat, this probably isn't for you. It’s intensely bitter (as you'd expect) and more of a cocoa experience than a “chocolate bar” in the usual sense.For me personally, it wasn’t a hit. I found it a bit too harsh to enjoy as a snack, and I’d much rather have a smaller amount of a smooth 50–70% dark chocolate than a full bar of this. That said, if you’re avoiding sugar completely, following a strict diet, or love ultra-dark chocolate, this could be just the thing.The quality is good, and it’s clearly made for a niche audience — naturally vegan, gluten free, and with clean ingredients. Just be aware: this is cocoa in its raw, unfiltered form. It's not sweet. It's not mellow. It's absolute black — in name and taste.

I tried this as I had read that dark chocolate was good for you if eaten in moderation. This didn't taste very nice to me. Not like chocolate. I asked my son who is vegan to taste and he said same. Would never buy this particular product again.

Absolutely love this chocolate. This one and orange variation as well.

This was my first ever attempt at eating 100% dark chocolate. I don't really like orange in chocolate but I was worried that the chocolate on its own would be really bitter and overpowering without the addition of orange oil. For me personally, the combination of the cocoa nibs and orange oil just wasn't that nice. I still ate the whole bar, I decided to eat one square a day. I later tried the absolute black (just cocoa solids without nibs or oil) and that's somehow much creamier and nicer than this one. Despite this somwhat negative review, it was a really cool experiment and I do think it's worth trying for the experience. I've always had brittle nails and an odd side effect of eating one square of chocolate a day has been that my nails are suddenly rock solid. I did some research and it seems like it's most likely the magnesium in my case.Here are my key points:- Creamer than I expected- Not as bitter as some other reviewes suggested- Not sure the cocoa nibs add anything positive into this.- I don't like chocolate oranges to begin with, so I was never the target audience for this.- Has improved my nail health significantly- Does help with sweet cravings

Extremely bitter but extremely healthy. I have 2 to 3 pieces a day for the health benefits (high flavinol content means it benefits stem cells) and have grown quite accustomed to it.Only 1 ingredient in it. You can't go wrong with that, healthwise
