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.

Nomad Coffee (based in Spain) is recognized as a notable specialty roaster, often grouped alongside other well-regarded European and international names by enthusiastic coffee fans. Customers enjoy their adventurous and unique offerings, such as experimental processing methods like 'molasses' and tropical fruit notes, though some find certain bags tricky to dial in or mention isolated batch defects like a cheesy smell. Overall, they are appreciated as a quality pick for those seeking specialty beans in Spain and beyond.
