I was recently at an orthopedic surgeon's house. I casually mentioned that I liked bourbon. He came out with a case of various pappy's. 10,12,20. He had 2 bottles of 20, different years. We tasted the two for differences. One was from prior to the sale to Buffalo Trace. He had a bunch of other bourbons as well. My favorite was the pappy 12 and the regular old Michters was right up there. It's become my new house bourbon. It was an awesome evening, it was not what I expected.

But to the point of your link, he gets them by essentially bribing.

Edit: I should mention that we didn't just "sip" or take small "tastes," we had full pours of anything we wanted. He was very generous. It was F-U-N!
