L'affare Mixes it up for Summer

L’affare have been mixing up some concoctions, the starring ingredient being their banging summer coffee. It’s the fruity and lively coffee blend you need to see you through the coming summer months.
Summer features taste notes of berries, melon and cream and is available in both plunger/filter and whole bean formats in supermarkets nationwide.
L'affare have made summer to be drunk cold – it’s the refreshing drink you never knew you needed in your fridge or chilly bin. For the classic kiwi summer days that aren’t so flash (we know they’ll be a few of those), it also tastes pretty banging as a hot brew.
Purchase their Limited Edition Summer Blend online or at your local supermarket.
