First Coffee Review Video - 427 Stroker from Gearhead Coffee

Greetings my fellow Fox River Roustabouts, welcome back to the shop. Well, here it is! The premier video from my new coffee review series. In this video I will be reviewing the “427 Stroker” blend of coffee from Gearhead Coffee. As I was trying to figure out which coffee to start with on this series I happened to notice ads for Gearhead coffee showing up in a lot of my feeds so eventually I checked them out. The company is obviously targeting a demographic that is interested in car culture. The coffee I’m reviewing first is a nod to the iconic “Mystery Motor” used by racing legends Mickey Thompson and Smokey Yunick. When I was in high school I figured I wanted to be a mechanic when I graduated so I took all the classes related to that like small engines class, automotive concepts both one and two, auto maintenance, ect. I’ve always liked cars and trucks, especially old ones and hotrods and while I didn't end up becoming an automotive mechanic I did end up working on trucks and heavy equipment so I still fit in the gearhead catagory. Looking at their website I discovered they offered a sample pack of six different blends with enough of each blend to brew a full pot of coffee. This seems like a great way to start the series so I ordered the sample pack and here is the first review.
