Price and availability set by the roaster.

Roasts to order · ships in ~1d

Your bag is roasted after you order; expect a short delay before it ships, but it arrives as fresh as the roaster can make it.

All our coffee is roasted to order which means it is packed and dispatched before it has had time adequately 'de-gas'. source ↗

Preliminary

Confidence33% coverage / 3 of 7 signals

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. Missing sources are dropped, remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 18% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
