Cherry's Index
Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology
71
Noted
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.

About Square Mile Coffee Roasters
Community reputation · Reddit
Well-regarded· sentiment 80/100
Square Mile is widely recognized as a staple UK roaster, frequently appearing on "must-try" lists for enthusiasts. While one user questioned the value proposition of their flavor profiles, the community generally respects their expertise, often citing their specific brew recommendations (like those for the Clever Dripper) as a reliable baseline. 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-roast" brewing.
