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 67.8 shrunk to 60.2 + bonuses = 61.

Two independent Reddit threads give Manhattan Coffee Roasters a mixed picture. One drinker called several experimental coffees amazing, while a recent local buyer found three bags merely acceptable and below the roaster's previous standard.

From Coffee Reviews, discussing Pepe Jijón TyOxy:
“The cup was not what I had expected at all, as it came out super herbal floral on that first impression.”
“There is a hibiscus flavor note listed on here and it made a lot of sense as it was so overpowering and overbearing.”
“The sweetness absolutely skyrocketed and I want to say up to this point the highest I could have probably put the sweetness was about a level three.”
