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.

Cherry's Index
Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology

Noted
Preliminary
Confidence35% 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 13% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.

Well-regarded· sentiment 70/100
A review of Reddit discussions shows that while the term 'Origin Coffee' appears frequently in the context of green coffee sourcing (such as Genuine Origin) and coffee origins generally, there is insufficient specific discussion or direct reviews of Origin Coffee as a specialty roaster to form a distinct community consensus.
