Sparse signal
Confidence2 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 23% 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 43% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 80.2 shrunk to 67.4 + bonuses = 69.

Same. I honestly shocked by how good their beans are. I'm temporarily in the ATL and visited one of their cafes. Also, Chrome Yellow and Bellwood have impressed me as well.

The Rwanda from Bellwood is also epic. I've never tasted such a pronounced strawberry note. I mean, it was almost weird, but also fascinating. Great coffee for sure.
