Cherry's Index

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

78

Strong

Preliminary

Confidence33% coverage / 3 of 7 signals

Score is partially shrunk toward a neutral 50 — read directionally until more source families land. Coverage is signal availability, not cup quality; missing sources are dropped, the remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 18% so a single thin signal can’t carry the score on its own.

Proud Mary is widely recognized as a top-tier roaster, frequently mentioned alongside other industry leaders like Onyx and Tim Wendelboe. While they are praised for their high-quality, "deluxe" coffee selections and excellent cafe experiences in Portland and Austin, some users have noted concerns regarding their premium pricing and recent inconsistencies in roast quality for subscription customers. Despite these isolated quality complaints, they remain a highly regarded roaster in the specialty coffee community.
