Montezumas Chocolate Dark Chocolate Absolute Black 100% Cocoa 90g

One ingredient. No compromise. Absolute Black is Montezuma's 100% cocoa dark chocolate bar, made from nothing but cocoa solids. There is no milk, no added sugar and nothing hiding in the recipe - just chocolate at its most concentrated. This 90g bar has built a loyal following among dark chocolate fans and is suitable for vegans.

What it tastes like

The flavour is intense and dramatic, with deep roasted cocoa notes, a pleasant natural bitterness and a dry, lingering finish. Without sugar to mask anything, you really taste the character of the cocoa bean itself. First-timers are often surprised; seasoned fans say the experience becomes addictive. Try it in small pieces, letting each one melt slowly to appreciate its complexity.

The story behind the brand

Two former lawyers, a cocoa plantation and a big idea - that is how Montezuma's started back in 2000. From a single shop in Brighton, Helen and Simon Pattinson built a British chocolate company known for bold flavour pairings and a sense of fun. Everything is still made in the UK, and the team has a firm rule of never using palm oil in any of its chocolate.

Perfect for

It is wonderful with a strong coffee or a peaty whisky, and a brilliant ingredient for cooks. Use it to add depth to stews and sauces, grate it over desserts, or make a rich hot chocolate sweetened exactly to your liking.

Good to know

Store in a cool, dry spot and away from anything strongly scented, since cocoa butter readily picks up other aromas. If a pale bloom ever appears on the surface, the chocolate is still perfectly fine to eat - it is simply a sign of a change in temperature.
