How Cherry’s Index is calculatedavg coverage 39% · 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.

Stumptown is widely recognized as a foundational specialty coffee roaster, often used as a benchmark for quality by home roasters and enthusiasts. While one user recently expressed concern regarding a perceived lack of inventory rotation and new releases, the brand remains a frequent point of reference for flavor profiles and a common target for those looking to replicate high-quality coffee at home. It is consistently grouped alongside other industry leaders like Counter Culture and Intelligentsia.
