This single-origin coffee is produced by Wilfredo Ule Vargas at Finca Alcatraz in Oporapa, Huila, Colombia. Grown at an altitude of 1,780 meters, this Caturra variety is processed using the washed method. It offers a bright and juicy profile with a full, sweet body. Tasting notes include riesling, honeycomb, and crème brûlée.
Brothers Jerad and Justin Morrison founded Sightglass Coffee in San Francisco in 2009, starting from a kiosk inside a 1924 warehouse in SoMa. The name comes from the viewing window on their vintage Probat roaster, a detail that captures the company's commitment to transparency at every stage of the process. Sightglass holds USDA organic certification through CCOF and sources most of its annual coffee from small farms following ecologically responsible practices. The Morrison brothers stepped down from leadership in 2024 after fifteen years, but the roasting philosophy they established, pairing mid century Probat equipment with careful, origin focused profiles, continues to define the operation.
