Recommendations for dark chocolate please?

Hi all,
Any recommendations for some really delicious dark chocolate? Ideally fair trade. I don't mind paying a little extra if it's worth it. Chocolate is of my few luxuries in life but recently discovered I can no longer have dairy. Aldi/Lidl is okay as a go to but I really want something that feels more of a delicious treat to myself.

Montezumas (but NOT the 100% which is foul) also Seed and Bean
I love the Montezuma's Absolute Black, it's amazing!

I used to love the Lidl 95% but it seems they've discontinued it!

The Montezuma's Absolute Black with orange and cocoa nibs is good too

Lindt is my favourite, closely followed by Tesco 74% and 86%..
I think I prefer the Tesco Mint and their raspberry and almond to the Lindt ones thought.
I quite like Hotel Chocolate as well, and buy my (adult) sons Divine dark chocolate coins for their Advent Calendars but I think they are 60% cocoa.

Montezuma seadog (lime and seasalt) is amazing.

I normally have Lidl but I recently bought Tesco's own 70% and it was lush.
I was just jumping on to say exactly this, and it's only about £1 I think, I prefer it to the more expensive brands

Tony's Chocolonely. The green one with salted almonds is my favourite, but there's also a blue one which is just dark chocolate.

I had a Galaxy Dark Choc bar in the summer. I think it was 70% cocoa solids and it was smooth and delicious. I bought it on a petrol station, but it is a rare beast imo and hard to find. Otherwise, Green and Black's Velvet (?) is lovely too, both plain and with added mint flavour. I definitely prefer my dark chocolate on the smoother side and find many 70%+ ones a little bitter. If you go down to 65% or less, they are sweeter and Lidl do some lovely ones.

M&S Fairtrade 72% Dark Chocolate, single origin Ecuador.

Nomo chocolate is nice. Its like milk chocolate without the milk. Also galaxy vegan chocolate and dairy milk do a new vegan chocolate. They're more expensive but worth it.
