What color is Benjamin Moore Bittersweet Chocolate?
Benjamin Moore Bittersweet Chocolate 2114-10 is a very deep, muted brown with a charcoal-like cast and subtle warmth. Its low-light value gives walls a near-black presence, while the brown undertone keeps it from reading as a flat, inky black. In bright daylight, this shade may reveal more of its softened brown character; at night, it becomes darker and more dramatic. Use it on a study wall, dining room cabinetry, interior doors, or a fireplace surround where a strong dark finish is wanted. Pair Bittersweet Chocolate with creamy off-whites, weathered oak, cognac leather, brushed brass, or pale stone for contrast.

LRV of Bittersweet Chocolate
Bittersweet Chocolate has an LRV of 5.1% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 5.1%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
