Unique. Fairly smooth, refined, light bodied and 'pretty', but not floral. Oak, white sugar, vanilla, citrus, pepper, and a touch of smoke and just a little scotch 'twang'. Clean tasting overall and a dry finish where I got a hint of chocolate/carob just when it quit. More interesting and flavorful than the typical 86 proofer. Recommended to drink neat, water or ice would just wash it out. Delicious, but my only complaint is with the value.

@PBMichiganWolverine ...I was expecting the Mesquite to make more of a difference. I don't know if I was expecting bigger and bolder after watching the marketing video and hearing McConaughey's description of his ideal bourbon and that he knew they had it right when he didn't have to add ice like he usually did. My preconception of this one was something light.
@BDanner I was disappointed by this one. I expected “bigger, bolder”...that entire association with Texas and Matthew Mcconaughey made me think it’ll more complex.
Right there with you...I really liked it, but after satisfying the initial curiosity, I don't see myself paying $40 for another bottle.
