From the editors

This lot is no longer available at the roaster.

We last reached the roaster’s page for this coffee 0 days ago. It now returns a not-found or members-only response, so we’ve archived the buy link rather than send anyone to a dead page. The notes, sensory chart, and editorial context below remain useful as a record of what this lot offered.

Cherrybook Index (CBI)

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

54

Sparse signal

Confidence1 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 5% 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 88% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.

The math on file: renormalized base 65.0 shrunk to 51.9 + bonuses = 54.

Cherrybook summary of the video

An interview with George Yiannakis of Revolver Coffee in Gastown, Vancouver. The conversation covers the cafe's iconic photography style, how the team captures daily shots around the shop amidst shifting light, and the deliberate curation behind their popular Instagram feed.

Inside this video

From bigheadtaco:

“The shot to me signifies the transition, the metamorphosis, into what you're referring to, which is that very stylistic revolver shot.”
“It's just makes it easier to get that shot with certain tools.”
“I never commit to a photo before I see the final product.”
