I'm making a recipe that sounds like it will be for a rich dark chocolate cake. It calls for a cup of strong coffee (but not espresso)
I don't love the taste of mocha.
What can I substitute for the coffee? Or, will I not really TASTE coffee, does it really just kind of make the bitter aspect of the chocolate more noticeable?
Please advise....

Adding coffee to chocolate cakes just makes them taste more chocolate-y, not mocha-y.

I agree that the coffee is not really tasted. I just needed to know what to do when we didnt have any coffee in the house.
heres my funny story: when I was married a couple months I tried my hand at a chocolate cake that my friend used to make. called for a cup of instant coffee. now im not a coffee drinker, and I barely baked before marriage (and my mother almost never baked beyond duncan hines).
so I put in a cup of instant coffee. you know. the grounds. wow did the house smell like coffee. and wow did the cake taste terrible and go straight in the garbage.
