The Coffee
Kenya Estate is a bright, lively, AA quality coffee is grown in the Nyeri region just 100 miles from the foot of Mount Kenya.
Kenyan coffee is well known for its vibrant acidity and crisp, fresh taste and Kenya Estate is no exception.
Grown by Acacias Members from six cooperative societies, the beans have been awarded the AA grade, which refers to their larger than normal bean size.
Green coffee beans are graded through cascading layers of sieves, each decreasing in size, until the coffee is trapped on a grading tray. The AA grade makes this some of the finest coffee in the world.
Kenya Estate is a light roast, releasing a bright and lively acidity. It has delicious fruity notes of pineapple and red berries with hints of strawberries and cream at the finish.

From Honduran Highlands to Your Cup
In Marcala, Honduras, coffee is not just grown — it’s lived. What began with sixty-nine farmers determined to protect their land has grown into COMSA, a cooperative of more than 1,200 members whose work reaches from the mountainside to the classroom. Their coffee carries with it not only the flavour of the highlands, but the promise of a stronger, more hopeful community.
How Roast Level Shapes the Character of Coffee
The journey from green bean to finished coffee is shaped by countless decisions, but none more influential than roast level. This single factor determines whether a coffee is lively and bright, smooth and balanced, or bold and intense. At H.R.Higgins, we roast with purpose, tailoring each profile to bring out the finest qualities in the bean. Here’s how each roast style creates its own distinct experience in the cup.
