Cherry's Index

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

66

Sparse signal

Confidence1 of 7 signals on file

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. This coffee has 18% 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 55% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.

The math on file: renormalized base 82.0 shrunk to 64.4 + bonuses = 66.

About Friedhats

Community reputation · Reddit

Well-regarded· sentiment 82/100

Friedhats is recognized as a standout Dutch specialty roaster, praised by community members for offering some of the best value-for-money light roasts in Europe compared to pricier competitors. While one thread features mixed opinions regarding roast styles and flavor profiles—with a few users noting roasty or ashy notes on certain origins—others group them alongside world-class roasters like Tim Wendelboe and recommend their beans for both filter and espresso applications.
