From the editors
This lot is no longer available at the roaster.
We last reached the roaster’s page for this coffee 167 days ago. It now returns a not-found or members-only response, so we’ve archived the buy link rather than send anyone to a dead page. The notes, sensory chart, and editorial context below remain useful as a record of what this lot offered.
Cherrybook Index (CBI)

72
Noted
Preliminary
Confidence3 of 7 signals on file
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. This coffee has 27% 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 32% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 85.2 shrunk to 73.8 + bonuses = 72.
