The Coffee
Continental Blend has been part of our selection since the earliest days of H.R. Higgins.
Created by Harold Higgins himself to satisfy the demand for a powerful coffee, our Continental Blend is a rich and sumptuous cup.
We blend the finest coffees from Colombia and India and roast the beans dark for an impactful and punchy flavour of malt, with sweet notes of molasses and dark chocolate and a kick at the finish.
The Sound of Footsteps, and the Call from the Palace
Our Accountant, working in the same room, had just turned to me and said “Mr Tony, that is Buckingham Palace on the phone to Miss Audrey” I replied “Really, I wonder what they want?”
Introducing El Salvador Finca El Ingenio
We’re often asked when the next new coffee is coming. The truth is, bringing a new coffee into the H.R.Higgins range is never rushed. It’s a process that takes time, care and a great deal of tasting.
Finca El Ingenio is the result — a distinctive coffee grown on a sixth-generation farm in El Salvador’s Ahuachapán region. Shade grown, Rainforest Alliance certified and honey processed, it offers bright grapefruit and lime, tropical fruit and a smooth fudge-like sweetness, with just a hint of funk.
