Warming Hearts and Hands: We’re Thrilled to Stock Harth Hot Chocolate!

A Note from Katharine (June 2026): We’ve been sourcing unique British brands since we opened the shop doors in 2012—and even further back to our market days in 2009. We are incredibly picky about what makes the cut. I wrote this post last year when we first introduced Harth to our shelves, and it has easily become a firm favorite in the shop and in our own home. Here is the story of how we found this incredible brand, and why it's proper chocolate with real goodness.

You know how much we love discovering those special gems that perfectly align with everything we believe in here at The Soar Trading Co. Well, get ready to cosy up because we’ve found another one, and we’re absolutely thrilled to introduce you to Harth Hot Chocolate!

This isn’t just any hot chocolate; it’s a little cup of comfort that ticks all our boxes. Firstly, Harth is proudly British made, crafted with care right here in the UK. Supporting local and British businesses is at the heart of what we do, and Harth’s commitment to quality and local sourcing makes them a perfect fit.

Secondly, their ethos of sustainability truly resonates with us. From responsibly sourced ingredients to their fully recyclable plastic-free brown bags, Harth is mindful of their environmental footprint, something we deeply value. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, they use unalkalized cocoa powder, which means it retains all its natural goodness and rich antioxidant properties alongside that incredible, deep taste.

And let’s talk about that luxurious feeling without the hefty price tag! Harth offers that wonderful sense of indulgence – proper, rich, and satisfying hot chocolate – making it an affordable luxury that you can enjoy every day.

So, how did we stumble upon this delightful find? Well, we first spotted Harth making waves in the pages of the ever-inspiring The Simple Things Magazine – a fantastic source for discovering thoughtfully made treasures.

But the real seal of approval came from closer to home! My stepson Josh, who hails from down near Bath (Harth’s neck of the woods!), raved about how good their hot chocolate was. And when local recommendations come that strong, you know you’re onto something special!

Trust us, once you try a mug of Harth Hot Chocolate, you’ll understand the buzz. It’s the perfect treat for chilly evenings, a comforting pick-me-up, or that essential flask filler for those long winter days watching football (you know I’m talking to you!).

Come and discover the warmth and wonderful flavour of Harth Hot Chocolate in-store and online now! We think you’re going to love them as much as we do.
