Price and availability set by the roaster.

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

Sparse signal

Confidence23% coverage / 2 of 7 signals

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. 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.
