Cherry's Index

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

71

Preliminary

Confidence33% coverage / 3 of 7 signals

Score is partially shrunk toward a neutral 50 — read directionally until more source families land. Coverage is signal availability, not cup quality; missing sources are dropped, the remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 18% so a single thin signal can’t carry the score on its own.

Well-regarded· sentiment 80/100

Square Mile is widely recognized as a staple UK roaster, frequently appearing on "must-try" lists and serving as a benchmark for brewing guidance. While one user questioned the value proposition of their coffee profiles, the community generally respects their expertise, often citing their specific brew recommendations (like those for the Clever Dripper) as reliable starting points. They are viewed as a high-quality, established roaster, even if some users find their strict categorization of filter versus espresso beans less flexible for omni-brewing needs.
