I've just eaten, meltingly slowly, my first three small squares of Lindt 99% dark chocolate .
WOooooOW!
It recommends you drink coffee with it, and so I did, it really needed it.
Desert dry explosion of pure chocolate taste.
£2.39 for 50g, not going to happen often.
It lingers on and on, like a revolution of flowers in Spring, like a velvet glove caressing your face.

Anyone got anything to add?

:0D

mmmm - I don't think I would like that - despite best efforts my palate is still attuned to Dairy Milk!

Knowing me though curiosity will demand I try it - like my coffee though so at least that shouldn't be a problem!

Will let you know!

I find the 99% really dry, but I adore the Lindt 90% and Green & Blacks 85%. Both totally edible. Did you see on Sunday Brunch on how to taste chocolate?

Put a square in your mouth and hold your nose
Let the chocolate melt in your mouth
Release your nose and then taste the melted chocolate.

I like Lindt 90% but not the 99% it is just that little bit too grown up for me

Oh yes, love the 99 %, discovered it some years back. Sorts out the chocoholics from the sugarholics.

Absolutely love the 99% stuff pure bliss.
I was bought up in Bournville chocolate runs through my veins,

I love both dark and milk chocolate, milk for the sugar addict in me and dark for the chocaholic!
I buy various strengths from different places to try and enjoy 'tasting' the different types of chocolate from different places. I had some 100% last month which was divine as long as you don't munch on it like a chocolate bar!

Three hours later and the taste is still lingering, like the memory of your best lover ...


Hmmm.

Very poetic!

Hmmm.

Got to ask.....what memories of your worst lover linger on?

Too tragic to recall :0@

I may be old but I'm not dead yet :0) teehee!

Will have to further explore the wonders of 99% with fresh coffee today.

Oooooooooh!

I don't have any chocolate at all.
Fortunately the conversation in this thread is smile-worthy.

I think I may have discovered the perfect break fast.
A teaspoon of coconut butter.
A stick of celery.
Two soft boiled organic eggs with a little iodised salt.
A cup of real coffee.
Three small squares of 99% dark chocolate.
A cup of real coffee.

Oooh Mama

Consider dropping a square of chocolate into bulletproof coffee before you hit it with the emersion blender. Yum!
