Cherry's Index
Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology
54
Sparse signal
Confidence23% coverage / 2 of 7 signals
Score is heavily shrunk toward 50; treat as a placeholder until more sources arrive. Coverage is signal availability, not cup quality; missing sources are dropped, the remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 43% so a single thin signal can’t carry the score on its own.

About Compass Coffee
Community reputation · Reddit
Mixed reviews· sentiment 65/100
Compass Coffee is frequently mentioned in Reddit threads, but almost exclusively in the context of the 'Coffee Compass' brewing guide by Barista Hustle, rather than the DC-based coffee roaster. When the roaster is explicitly discussed, it is primarily in the context of labor disputes and union-busting allegations, which has generated significant negative sentiment within the community. There is very little discussion regarding the actual quality or taste of their coffee.
