Origins
The origin of the Highlander Grogg coffee name is not tied to a specific historical figure or event, but rather to the marketing creativity of coffee producers.
Highlander Grogg is a flavored coffee known for its distinctive taste, often featuring a blend of flavors like caramel, butterscotch, and a hint of whiskey. The term "Highlander" often evokes images of the Scottish Highlands, which are famous for their rugged landscapes and rich history. Grogg is a term associated with a type of alcoholic beverage. Originally, grog referred to a mixture of rum and water that was commonly consumed by sailors in the British Navy.
The specific blend of flavors in our FEARLESS Highlander Grogg coffee is designed to mimic the taste of a warm and comforting beverage, possibly inspired by the traditional Scottish drink known as "Hot Toddy," which is a warm alcoholic drink typically made with whiskey, honey, and spices.
Different coffee roasters and producers have their own variations of Highlander Grogg, and is popular among those who enjoy flavored coffees with a unique and sweet twist.
