Review: A deeply intense chocolate for lovers of real raw cocoa—take your time with this one. - Having recently tried Montezuma’s Absolute Black 100% Cocoa bar, I feel confident in recommending it but with a caveat, this is not your typical sweet chocolate bar. Right from the first square, you notice the boldness. The aroma is notably rich, almost nutty and earthy, with no overt sweetness. As it melts, the flavour unfurls slowly raw cocoa bitterness leads the way, followed by a roasted, slightly fruity under-note, and a lingering finish that keeps you mindful you’re eating something serious. What I really appreciate is the purity: the ingredients list is simple—“dark chocolate (cocoa mass 100%)”. That said, this bar won’t be for everyone. The bitterness is intense several reviewers say it’s almost too much straight off, unless you’re very accustomed to high-percentage cocoa bars it's best when you savour a small piece slowly, let it sit on your tongue a moment, and maybe pair it with a slightly sweet or creamy food to contrast it. I also like that the brand gives context around “100% cocoa” and how they manage to retain smoothness despite the absence of sugar or fillers. Montezuma’s Absolute Black is a top-tier choice if you’re into ultra-dark, minimalist chocolate with no sugar and real cocoa intensity. But go slowly if your usual bar is 70-80% cocoa, this is a step up in both flavour strength and bitterness. Be prepared for the experience. If you do enjoy it, you’ll find a bar that feels rare and rich.

As a dedicated dark chocolate enthusiast, this product has exceeded my expectations in every way. First and foremost, the intense cocoa flavour is unparalleled. The richness and depth of the chocolate are immediately apparent with the first bite, offering a bold and robust taste that is both satisfying and indulgent. The absence of sugar highlights the natural bitterness of the cocoa, which is perfect for those who appreciate the true, unadulterated flavour of dark chocolate. The texture of this chocolate is remarkably smooth. Despite its high cocoa content, it melts beautifully in the mouth, providing a luxurious and velvety experience. This is a testament to the quality of the ingredients and the meticulous production process Montezuma's employs. One of the standout features of this product is its commitment to being gluten-free and naturally vegan. This makes it an excellent choice for those with dietary restrictions or those who prefer plant-based options without compromising on taste or quality. The packaging is elegant and practical, reflecting the premium nature of the product. It's clear that Montezuma's has put thought into every aspect of this chocolate, from its ethical sourcing to its sustainable packaging.

Its intense flavour, smooth texture, and dietary inclusivity make it a standout product in the world of dark chocolate. For anyone seeking the ultimate dark chocolate experience, this is a must-try.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ FOR THE DISCERNING CHOCOLATE LOVER
*by H***N on 8 November 2025*

This is 100% Pure Chocolate and definitely an acquired taste. It is quite a bitter taste, so if you’re wanting to wean yourself onto better quality, purer Chocolate such as this with high Cocoa Solids, then try starting with the lower percentages first such as 60%, 70%. You might not appreciate the taste if you were used to consuming Milk Chocolate. You don’t need very much as it is very rich and filling. I eat a small piece every day to fit in with my Diabetic Diet and to ward off a Family History of Dementia…!!
