I reside in Rhode Island and emailed the distillery asking where I could obtain AAA in my area. This was their response:

Agustus, please see my comment above. It’s only available in KY (sadly).

I have recently read in Wikipedia that
AAA 10 has been discontinued…please say “it ain’t so?” I live on the Central Coast of California…how can I purchase AAA 10?
Many thanks!…ab

Hi Jim,

It’s mainly available in Kentucky, but I have seen it at some whisky speciatly shops in major cities. (It’s possible they are bootlegging it in from KY.)

I still find a (very) occasional bottle of AAA 10yo here in Tennessee, where it was still distributed 12-15 years ago, but I make it a habit to never pass through Kentucky — the only state-wide market in which it is still offered — without buying a bottle.
With Very Rare Old Heaven Hill BIB losing its 10yo designation, it’s about the best aged, value play out there.

Sam, yep, I’m glad we got it at 43%, but it would be nice to see it at 45%.

John B: Jay @ The Party Source told me about his AAA bottling. I’m looking forward to trying it and comparing it to the standard AAA.

If you can, try the single barrel offering of AAA currently being sold at the Part Source in Bellevue, KY. Like regular AAA… but more so!

We’re in agreement on everything you mention, but I’ll just say that I’m glad they went the extra 3% and made this slightly bigger than the requisite 80 proof. I’m tend not to gravitate toward any 80 proof whiskey, and remain disappointed that, even at the upper end, there are no tequilas bigger than 40%.
