• A new chapter in Sri Lanka’s coffee evolution

By Amira Cader

Bringing together the art, science and soul of coffee, Soul Brewology has positioned itself as Sri Lanka’s first complete coffee experience studio — a place where passion for coffee meets innovation and craftsmanship. Located at Chatham Street, Colombo 01, Soul Brewology embodies a holistic approach to coffee, offering everything from premium roasted beans to world-class brewing equipment and expert barista training.

Created by Soul Coffee Group, the new studio aims to redefine the local coffee landscape by offering a complete range of coffee solutions—from specialty coffees and premium equipment to barista training and after-sales support—all under one roof.

Since its founding, Soul Coffee has tapped into Sri Lanka’s rich coffee heritage to deliver exceptional coffee experiences. Sustainably grown and ethically sourced, Soul Coffee uses only the finest local Arabica beans, roasted to perfection to capture the distinct taste of Sri Lankan coffee. The company is dedicated to delighting customers while supplying world-renowned coffee machine brands and providing professional training for its clientele.

Soul Coffee offers a total coffee solution that includes a curated selection of coffee beans and a range of commercial coffee machines from Italy and the USA. In addition to equipment, the company provides barista training, menu development, coffee consultancy, accessories, and technical support—ensuring a complete and reliable service for businesses in the coffee industry. By focusing on understanding customer needs and maintaining exceptional product quality, Soul Coffee continues to strengthen its reputation as a customer-centric brand.

The newly opened Soul Brewology studio further extends this commitment, serving as an interactive space for café owners, hoteliers and coffee enthusiasts. Visitors can explore, learn and experience every aspect of coffee—from bean to cup—through live demonstrations, expert guidance and hands-on workshops. 

Soul Coffee Group Founder Rinosh Nasar said, “It’s not just about convenience, Soul Brewology represents the next step in Sri Lanka’s coffee evolution—a complete, end-to-end benchmark solution built on over a decade of experience crafting the country’s best coffees. We’re excited to collaborate with café owners and hoteliers to meet their coffee needs.”

At the heart of Soul Brewology lies Soul Coffee Roasters, the brand’s specialty coffee arm that celebrates Sri Lanka’s coffee heritage. The roastery offers an impressive selection of espresso and filter blends, including Monsoon Hills, Tropical Highlands and Highrise. For those seeking exclusivity, limited-edition blends such as Three Mountain and Weiragala Hills add a touch of distinction to the lineup.

Soul Brewology has also been appointed the exclusive distributor in Sri Lanka for several globally recognised coffee brands. These include Italian machine manufacturers Faema, Slayer, Casadio and Gaggia; award-winning Australian specialty coffee brand ONA, French syrup brand Giffard and MHW-3Bomber accessories—names trusted by professionals around the world.

By uniting innovation, expertise and ethical sourcing, Soul Brewology has set a new benchmark for Sri Lanka’s coffee industry. From bean to cup, it exemplifies how a homegrown brand can match international standards while staying true to its Sri Lankan roots.
