55
Sparse signal
Confidence2 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 23% 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 43% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 55.4 shrunk to 53.1 + bonuses = 55.

I picked up a bag of little wolf and after brewing 4 cups, I threw it out. It was a well rested Andres Cardona, Colombia, with the following flavor notes: Black Raspberry, Grape, Winey. All I could get was unpleasant sour sour sour. I didn’t even like the smell of the beans. Sometimes, I just hate a coffee. I’m not was
