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 82.7 shrunk to 68.8 = 69.

- r/Coffee · 246↑ · Recommendations for VERY fruity beans?
I just finished a bag of Cat and Cloud’s Ethiopia Kercha Natural, and found it to be intensely berry flavored—no subtlety at all, it was great for introducing family to black coffee that doesn’t taste like how they expect coffee to taste (burned and bitter). I also agree with the recommendation for Happy Mug’s Ethiopia
