The Perfect Match Truffle Gift Set - Pre Order
We are delighted to bring back our Perfect Match truffle gift set for the festive period. Bringing together our best selling coffee, Creole Blend, and tea, Blue Lady, with expertly paired truffles from the multi award winning Highland Chocolatier.
The Perfect Match
Our Blue Lady Tea is one of our most popular. To create this delicious fruit tea, we combine black tea with aromatic dried mallow and marigold flowers for a refreshing tea with a delicate perfume, complemented by a fresh grapefruit flavour. We have paired this with a Passion Fruit with hint of Mango Velvet Truffle. The zest of crushed passion fruit blended in a ganache with a touch of mango accentuates the grapefruit notes of the Blue Lady a tropical fruit sensation for a deliciously refreshing experience.
Creole Blend is our richest and most popular blend created in the 1950s by Harold Higgins himself, Creole Blend is powerful, rich and very smooth with no acidity and a blackberry finish. We have paired this with a Dark Velvet Truffle, a version of which was awarded “The World’s Best Dark Truffle”. The intense dark São Tomé chocolate and Madagascan vanilla of this complex ganache takes you on a similar journey to the Creole Blend, both with fruity and earthy tones. The long oak finish of the ganache beautifully matches the dark roast finish of the coffee, adding a smooth and rich body to the smoky intensity without masking the fruity blackcurrant note at the end.
Our Perfect Match Gift set includes 250g of Creole Blend ground for filter and 125g of Blue Lady tea. You will receive 20 truffles: 6 Dark Velvet Truffles paired with Creole Blend, 6 Passion Fruit with Hint of Mango Velvet Truffles paired with Blue Lady, and 8 H. R. Higgins Signature Truffles; 4 Chai and 4 Mocha. Each set will be accompanied with full tasting notes and beautifully presented in a H.R. Higgins gift box.

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.
