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 ↗

Sparse signal

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.
