The Tea
Our famous Blue Lady tea is one of the best selling and most popular on our list.
To create Blue Lady, we blend China Keemun tea with perfectly blended additions to produce a delicious fruit tea with a refreshing and uplifting flavour.
Keemun forms a complex and flavoursome base. We add dried mallow and dried marigold flowers for a subtle floral note. Finally, grapefruit provides an intense citrus aroma.
The result is a refreshing tea with a delicate perfume, a perfect balance between the fruity and the floral.
Not only is Blue Lady delicious, but it also has numerous wellness benefits. Keemun tea is packed with anti-oxidants. Mallow and Marigold are both both well known for their healing and detoxifying properties. Mallow flowers have been used for centuries to aid digestion as well as being used as a traditional herbal remedy for asthma and bronchitis. Marigold flowers, also know as Calendula, are known for their healing benefits. And of course, grapefruit is a great source of vitamin C.

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.
