Goody goody twisted my arm to pick this up with my old soul single barrel. It’s good. Definitely complicated, and fresh to me considering it’s not a true bourbon. The story intrigues me. Distilled by MGP, aged 12 years, then produced by another much smaller distillery in Ohio. Want to know the mashbill. I get a lot of corn, and probably some malted barley in there. The spice is evident but very light. A lingering intensity lives on in it and it punches pretty well for something I know almost nothing about. Would love to see batch 2 of this come out at cask strength, or in some form of a single barrel. Would buy again for the price as a unique bottle to keep around, but tell me more Hooten Young!

The website says 99% corn 1%malt maybe a mellow corn attmpt by MGP I can't help but wonder if some of the chemical taste is the fermentation reagent they had to add with that low a malt content.
