Malaysia’s coffee culture is thriving. And we have all these gourmet cafes to thank for. One of them is espressoLAB, with a mantra on specialty coffee and only that. More than your gentrified, pretentious café, espressoLAB is really a coffee specialist. Not only their coffee is good, they also hold coffee appreciation class to further cultivate the coffee culture to those who are interested.

Coffee beans here are sourced from around the world, including Brazil, Columbia, Costa Rica, Indonesia as such. Then they batch roast them according to demand in order to keep the flavor of the beans so they don’t go stale. As you can tell, the fellas from espressoLAB are serious about this business.

They are using a Synesso 3-group Cyncra, which is possibly one of the best espresso machines in the world today. They also do custom roast, blends and a wide selection of alternative brew methods like the syphons, Aeropress, Hario V-60 pour-overs, Clever Drippers and French presses. But really, all you need to know is, their coffee is excellent. There is another outlet at The Gardens Shopping Mall with equal top-notch quality coffees. If you are a coffee enthusiast, this is one spot you should not miss.

Now you can also find espressoLAB in Singapore!
