The Coffee
Guatemala Nueva Granada is a sumptuous coffee grown in the volcanic highlands of San Marcos.
Grown by Dieter and Holly Nottebaum who have been farming in Guatemala for many years, the coffee is shade-grown and wildlife corridors are preserved.
In addition to growing coffee, the farm provides a school for the children of the estate and computer training, as well as a healthcare clinic. They also pipe fresh spring water to 4,000 nearby residents.
Guatemala Nueva Granada is roasted light, bringing out fruity notes of nectarine, raspberry and apple with a mild acidity.
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.
A New Origin for H.R.Higgins
Discover Burundi Giku Hill, the first Burundi coffee to join the H.R.Higgins collection. A bright and elegant washed Red Bourbon with notes of citrus, stone fruit, cane sugar and black tea, sourced by our Head of Coffee from over 150 smallholder farmers in Kayanza Province.
