Wild Turkey and Matthew McConaughey launch eco cabin!

Matthew McConaughey is in town, launching an off-the-grid cabin on the NSW Central Coast as part of the Wild Turkey With Thanks initiative. This is all about connecting Aussies with the wild but at the same time ecourging us to preserve it.

The Academy Award-winning actor led the design of the cabin in his capacity as Design Director. The cabin is called named The Reserve and was built by travel start-up Unyoked.

The solar-powered, no-wifi cabin (shock horror) took months of labor to make sure only sustainable materials were used, “I’ve always been in awe of Australia’s natural beauty. My hope now is that The Reserve by Wild Turkey x Unyoked cabin will inspire Australians to reconnect with nature as an antidote to the frenetic pace of life. I’m also proud that the cabin will form part of the Australian Wild Turkey With Thanks initiative that will support people and organisations who demonstrate unwavering conviction to preserving and protecting Australia’s great wilderness and wildlife” said McConaughey.

The cabin is now available for bookings where it is based on the Central Coast of New South Wales. A percentage of proceeds from the cabin and $1 from every bottle of McConaughey’s Wild Turkey Longbranch sold in November and December will be donated to Unyoked’s charity partner, the Foundation for National Parks & Wildlife.
