How we recommend

The tasting scores published, beginner-ready single origins using flavor preference, bitterness tolerance, available gear, and how adventurous you feel. Weights live in open code. Changing them is an editorial act, never a placement we sell.

Recommendations are not paid or sponsored. We do not take affiliate commissions on bean sales, and we do not sell bags.

If ads appear on informational guides, they sit in site chrome only. They never sit on the tasting flight at /taste/results.

Origin notes come from a curated specialty coffee reference library plus public agronomic records. If we do not have an altitude band or variety name, the field stays honest and empty. We do not invent those facts.
