Cherry's Index

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

67

Noted

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 75.2 shrunk to 64.5 + bonuses = 67.

La Cabra is widely recognized in the specialty coffee community as a premier Nordic-style roaster. They are frequently grouped with other top-tier roasters like Sey, April, and Coffee Collective, and are often cited as a benchmark for light roast profiles. While some users note that their coffees require specific water chemistry and extended rest periods to shine, they maintain a strong reputation among enthusiasts who appreciate their bright, delicate flavor profiles.
