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

Sparse signal
Confidence23% coverage / 2 of 7 signals
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. 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.

Luna (Enjoy Luna Coffee) is recognized as a popular Canadian roaster, particularly noted for light roasts and specialty coffee in Vancouver. They have gained attention for their unconventional perspective on bean aging—publishing articles arguing that light roasts can actually taste better after resting for several weeks or months. Customers and coffee enthusiasts discuss their beans (such as Blue Honey) and seek out their products both locally and internationally, though some note that international shipping costs can be prohibitive.
