How Cherrybook Index is calculatedavg coverage 31% · limited data
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.

Three Reddit posts give Nossa Familia Coffee strongly favorable marks. Two home baristas praised the Full Cycle blend both straight and in milk drinks. A Portland contributor called the roaster's coffee fantastic and highlighted its Brazilian estate connection.
