Roasts to order · ships in ~2d
Your bag is roasted after you order; expect a short delay before it ships, but it arrives as fresh as the roaster can make it.
“All the coffees you buy from us are hand-roasted to order. That means we wait until we receive your order before we fire up the roaster.” source ↗

Cherrybook Index (CBI)
Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology
40
Preliminary
Confidence2 of 7 signals on file
Score is partially shrunk toward a neutral 50; read directionally until more source families land.
How confidence affects the score
Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. This coffee has 30% 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 25% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 36.7 shrunk to 40.0 = 40.
