Hooten Young 12 Years American Whiskey

Hooten Young was founded by U.S. Army Master Sergeant Retired, Norm Hooten, real-life “Hoot” portrayed in Black Hawk Down. Since its inception, he has committed himself to growing the Hooten Young brand, while supporting veteran and military-focused causes first and foremost.

Hooten Young was created as a brotherhood bonded by the love of freedom, family and honor. A tribute to the brave men and women of the armed forces who have gone above and beyond the call of duty.
