8Js Jochen Rindt - LIMITED EDITION

$20.00

While Formula 1 made Jochen Rindt a global superstar, his racing career had humble beginnings with his first race in 1961 with a car borrowed from his Grandmother. Though his beginnings were humble, his rise to success was rapid. By 1964, Rindt was not only racing in Fomula 2, but winning races against Formula 1 World Champion Graham Hill. By 1965, merely 4 years after Rindt began racing, he achieved an overall victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and was racing in Formula 1 with Bruce McLaren as his team mate. In 1969 Rindt joined Lotus F1, with team mate Graham Hill, and manager Bernie Ecclestone. It was in the 1970 season, behind the wheel of the Lotus 72, that Rindt would ultimately achieve his goal of becoming World Champion. Tragically, he died mid-season in a crash at Monza, however his performance in the 72 had been so dominant, that he had accumulated enough points to win the Championship, and to this day he is the only driver to have been awarded the World Drivers’ Championship posthumously. In this special edition, we have selected an exceptional Tanzanian coffee. Similar to Kenyan coffees in their bold citrus flavors, Tanzanian coffees are often slightly edgier and fuller bodied. We found this coffee to be the perfect pairing for Rindt’s story. A driver with the will, and the skill, to win against the best, yet also one with a bold personality, who lived, and raced, on his own terms

Great coffee in great packaging

The beans were delicious! I was delighted to find that I liked them as much as the packaging. I tried both the Jochen and Targa (both light roast) and LOVED both. Brewed as cold bred

Best automotive themed coffee out there

Drive Coffee continues to never disappoint. Their coffee roasts are bold and flavorful to be enjoyed both alone or in a coffee drink. Fairly priced and great quality. I wish we could sell it at our Porsche store, because I bet it would sell like hot cakes!

From green flag to checkers - Jochen Rindt coffee is a winner!

Admittedly it is not me that's the coffee connoisseur in our house, but rather my wife. We've become Drive Coffee "regulars" and have developed a signaling system for when I need to order more (and what kind). When she's running low she places one of the empty cans on the counter so that I know both when, and which kind of coffee to order next - 8J Jochen Rindt - Limited Edition has been in strong rotation lately, making appearances on the counter somewhat more often than the other varieties. I think some of this is driven by the knowledge that it's a limited edition, so at some point won't be available, but she also genuinely likes it.

Drive has been great to us - reasonable pricing for a premium coffee, fast, free delivery when we order more than a couple cans at a time and a theme that fits with the rest of our lifestyle combine to make it easy to keep coming back!
