You might wonder, Who are we at Archila Lab?
It’s simple: we believe the perfect cup requires equal parts precision and passion. I started this journey to curate sensory experiences that wake up your eyes as much as your palate.
We don't just sell beans; we design moments. Whether it’s the optimism of our Sunrise Blend or the comfort of a Midnight roast, we excited for you to taste the difference.
Curated Science. Unboxed Art.
In a world of mass-produced, stale supermarket coffee, we took a different approach. We built a Lab. But this isn't a place of cold machinery; it is a studio where we obsess over the physics of roasting so you can get lost in the art of tasting.
We treat roasting like a science, so you can enjoy it like an art.
The Physics of Freshness
Coffee is chemistry. From the moment a bean leaves the roaster, it begins to lose its volatile aromatic compounds. Supermarket coffee sits in warehouses for months, losing its soul before it ever reaches your cup.
We operate on a strict Peak Flavor Window. We roast in small batches and ship fast. Our goal is to ensure your beans arrive within the crucial 3-to-8 day window after roasting—the precise moment when the gases have settled and the flavor notes are most vibrant.
Our Standard
We don't roast average beans. We source exclusively from the top 5% of global crops—beans that meet the strict SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) standard of 80+ points.
From the volcanic soils of Guatemala to the high peaks of Ethiopia, we hunt for specific flavor data: crisp acidity, deep sweetness, and structural clarity.
