The Coffee
Created in the 1960s by Mr Tony, our Santiago Blend was born of a desire for stronger, more powerful coffees.
We blend beans from Costa Rica and Colombia to create a high quality, rich coffee which is perfect for after dinner or as a strong breakfast coffee.
Our Santiago Blend has a natural sweetness, with notes of vanilla, caramelised sugar and dark chocolate. It has a gentle acidity with zero bitterness.




Our philosophy on choosing our coffee range
My grandfather had a vision. Back in the 1930s when he was working as a manager at the Kenya Coffee Company coffee was not seen as a speciality at all. He wanted to start his own business and in his diary he wrote:
The Art of Fresh Coffee: Why Beans is the Best Choice and the Importance of Roasting Date
There's something undeniably captivating about the aroma of freshly brewed coffee.
In this blog post, we'll explore why fresh coffee reigns supreme over its counterparts and why the roasting date takes precedence over the best-before date on all of our H.R.Higgins coffee bags.
