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

35

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 30.0 shrunk to 35.0 = 35.
