Avant Garde
Beaming far & wide, Avant Garde is Underground’s famous house blend. Avant Garde is full bodied & chewy – think toffee apples with a lingering dark chocolate bitter-sweetness.
Pairs well with milk but can just as easily go it alone.

Beatnik

This blend is superb as a filter coffee & great as an espresso. Not for the faint hearted.
