Most notably, for a Texas whiskey, this doesn't have the distinct funk that I usually associate with whiskies aged in the Texas heat. Noses and tastes more like something from Kentucky than anything else I've tried from Texas. The youth is there, which is to be expected since this is only 2 years old, but it's surprisingly drinkable. At 4 years I suspect this will be really good. It has a little bit of fresh off the still moonshine type note to it - the raw grain and sourness that I taste in my friend's homemade moonshine. Can't give this high marks, but 3 stars for potential seems reasonable.
