Batch roasted weekly · ships in ~2d

Roasted on a scheduled weekly rhythm. Very fresh if you order right after a roast day; less so near the end of the cycle.

“We roast three days a week. Orders placed later in the week may be subject to a short delay due to low inventory and will be roasted the following Monday.” source ↗

Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology

Strong

Preliminary

Confidence33% coverage / 3 of 7 signals

Score is partially shrunk toward a neutral 50 — read directionally until more source families land.

How confidence affects the score

Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. Missing sources are dropped, remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 18% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.

Customers frequently praise their fruit-forward, light-roast offerings—such as exotic Colombian sets and anaerobic processed beans—with some calling them the best coffee they've ever had. While one user noted their light espresso blend can be quite tart in milk, the overall community consensus highlights Corvus for high-quality, complex single origins and an exceptional cafe/roasting experience.
