    Most dark chocolate I’ve had sucks the moisture completely out of my mouth and leaves just bitterness. It’s not an enjoyable experience at all. Cacao percentage plays a role, but anything north of around 75% I can’t stand at all.

      Yeah there’s a big difference between 70 and 80 for sure.

      80+ is still is a ‘sometimes and small amounts’ thing for me, but many 70s and anything <60 taste just as sweet as milk chocolate to me

      Yeah, that’s too much. Try around 50%. I mostly enjoy it cause it’s a lot less sweet. I’m much more sensitive to sweetness than as a kid.
