The Coffee
Peru Inambari Fairtrade Organic is coffee grown and supplied through a direct relationship with the farmer.
Grown on the Agraria Frontera San Ignacio Cooperative whose farm lies in the Caijamarca region in the district of Coipa. The farm is found within a group of protected areas where many wild animals such as spectacled bears and jaguars roam.
The cherries are processed at the farm using a traditional method of fermentation tanks made from fallen Romerillo trees. Typically, the cherries are picked in the morning and processed the same day, avoiding any deterioration of the quality of the coffee beans.
We roast Peru Inambari FTO dark so it becomes very smooth and mellow without any bitterness. This brings out the natural rich sweetness of the coffee, highlighting notes of cantaloupe and toffee.
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.
