Dark roasted but not too bitter - this coffee's smooth chocolaty body and warm vanilla sweetness steal the stage.

Medium-Dark roast

Understanding roast levels

Roast level affects both flavor and body. Here's what to expect from each.

Light

Best for: those that prize delicate flavors and a tea-like feel above intensity.

Light-Medium

Best for: those that enjoy juicy acidity and gently caramelized sugars.

Medium

Best for: those that enjoy caramelized sugars and a smooth cup.

Medium-Dark

Best for: those looking for classic coffee flavors with a kiss of roast.

Dark

Best for: those that love intense, smoky flavor and a full body above all else.

Trade Tip

Roasters don’t always agree on roast level — one roaster’s dark might look the same as another’s medium. We taste and assign every coffee our own roast level, so your matches stay consistent no matter who roasted them.

ABOUT THE ROASTER

Sightglass

San Francisco, CA
Partnered with Trade since 2018
Sightglass Coffee launched in 2009 with a simple belief: coffee can be both art and connection. Named for the small window on a roasting machine, Sightglass works with like-minded growers and roasts in small batches—so every cup reflects care, precision, and genuine craft at its best.
Fun Fact
You can still see Sightglass' vintage PROBAT roaster in action at their SF flagship in the SOMA district where they roast to order 5 days a week.

    Absolutely lovely

    Some of the best coffee beans we've tried! Strong, bold, and flavorful, works very well for Thai coffees (espresso + sweetened condensed milk + pinch salt).

    Very smooth

    It doesn’t have that overwhelming coffee taste that others have. Highly recommend.
