22 lots in stock, mostly Ethiopia, Colombia and Kenya.
Coverage is below 50%. Available roaster-level evidence comes from Reddit. Per-lot evidence from SCA grades, Coffee Review entries, and public on-shop product ratings is limited across the catalog. With limited signal, scores are also pulled toward a neutral 50 baseline by the Cherrybook Index methodology, so lots can read flatter than the actual cup quality differences between them. The average Cherrybook Index therefore leans more heavily on roaster-level reputation than per-lot quality.
Roaster signals
Apply to every lot from this roaster.
Per-lot signals (averaged)
Vary across lots; averaged over 22 in-stock lots.
Base components are renormalized over whatever signals are available for each lot. SCA + Coffee Review are capped at 40% combined to keep the cupping story from dominating. Bonuses (accolades, awards, editorial coverage) and freshness decay are applied on top.

One thread author describes Lilo Roasters as great yet borderline overwhelming. Another commenter shares a detailed recipe and tasting notes for an Ethiopia Karamo Niguse Gemeda Mude Light Roast from the roaster, highlighting clear cranberry, strawberry, orange, and honey notes. A third thread asks about shops selling Lilo Roasters in Tokyo.
Recent haul from my trip across Japan. The pour over coffee scene is hopping. Lilo roasters was great/ borderline overwhelming. My favorite was a small shop in Kyoto called Coyote. Great prices on some amazing coffee.
