How Cherry’s Index is calculatedavg coverage 33% · limited data

Coverage is below 50%. Most of this roaster’s lots are scored off roaster-level signals (Reddit + YouTube) without per-lot SCA grades, Coffee Review entries, or published buyer reviews. With limited signal, scores are also pulled toward a neutral 50 baseline by the Cherry’s Index methodology, so lots can read flatter than the actual cup quality differences between them. The avg Cherry’s Index reflects general reputation more than per-lot quality.

Airship Coffee is viewed as a solid, reliable roaster within the community, frequently appearing in posts where users share their daily setups or brewing experiments. Their Ethiopia Kochere is a notable favorite, often highlighted for its bright and sweet flavor profile. While one user noted a savory/meaty note in a specific origin and another found their decaf to be just 'okay,' these are isolated observations rather than patterns of poor quality. Overall, they are regarded as a dependable option for both espresso and filter coffee.
