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 76.7 shrunk to 65.3 + bonuses = 67.

I'm also from Calgary and I love philosafy on 17 Ave (the asain man makes the most amazing pour over ever), Rosso, and kicking horse 3 sisters (grocery store brand but still amazing, imo)
- r/pourover · 9↑ · Sunday Sessions’ hosted by Cole Torode at the Rosso Roastery.
I kind of love Rosso Coffee Roasters. Affordable, excellent quality, makes buying local more appealing than all the roasters in Calgary, for sure.

From Rosso Coffee Roasters, discussing El Salvador Dinner Date:
“Today we are going to be brewing a washed red bourbon. Bourbon. It's spelled like bourbon, but it's pronounced more like bourbon.”
“And it is from a station called Rugali in Rwanda.”
