Sparse signal
Confidence1 of 7 signals on file
Score is heavily shrunk toward 50; treat as a placeholder until more sources arrive.
How confidence affects the score
Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. This coffee has 5% of the signal universe on file. Missing sources are dropped, remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 88% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 90.0 shrunk to 55.0 = 55.

A processing breakdown that reads like a technical engineering manual
The roaster lists every stage of the processing method in a precise, chronological sequence. It reads like a technical manual rather than marketing fluff. By detailing the exact hours spent in oxidation and fermentation, they treat the producer's labor as a verifiable engineering feat.
“16-hour cherry oxidation, 38-hour anaerobic fermentation, 12-hour bean and mucilage oxidation, 24-hour fermentation with coffee mosto, thermal shock wash”
