At 907 g, this bag runs about 13% less per ounce than a typical 287 g bag; that is pack size, not the coffee.
How this estimate works
A statistical model, refit weekly across the in-stock catalog, estimates what a coffee with these listed attributes typically sells for per ounce. Each multiplier compares one trait against the average lot in this market; the roaster line covers brand and sourcing together, which this model cannot separate. Bag size is shown separately, priced at the rate observed across sizes of the same coffee, because it says nothing about the coffee itself. The distribution counts every in-stock listing in the comparison group, with at least 15 listings from three roasters and no roaster supplying more than 60% of it. Decaf, blends, variety segments, processing families and bag formats stay separate. Origin, roast and selling currency can broaden as the group label indicates. Prices are converted to USD per ounce; shipping and differences in tax treatment are not adjusted. The model reads listed attributes only: the quality of the specific lot in the bag is not observable, so a price above the typical band is not evidence of overpricing.
Some listing details are missing or have limited model coverage, so the typical band shown is wider than usual.

55
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 55.2 shrunk to 53.0 + bonuses = 55.

Two Reddit posts give mixed but meaningful Ritual evidence. One treats Ritual as a commercial quality benchmark; another calls its Quilanga a nice bag while finding the roast slightly too developed and less acidic than preferred.

Weird- my brother just came back from SF yesterday and brought me a bag of Quilanga (ecuador) from Ritual. I had never heard of them before. It's a nice bag- but I feel it was pushed a tad too far and lost some acidity.
- r/roasting · 5↑ · how important is equipment?
I've been roasting for a bit but my coffee has always turned out a bit one dimensional, especially when compared to the likes of four barrel / ritual. Do air poppers deliver an inferior product compared to fancier drum roasters? Rather, how important is the speed of the roast?
