This pains me, because I am a fan of Bulleit Bourbon. And this whiskey is a decent sipper. It's spicey and hot when you drink it neat.
But I buy a $25 rye for a Manhattan. Bulleit Rye brings out a bizarre celery flavor when mixed with vermouth. I've tried serveral different vermouth and bitters combinations. In the end. It's only drinkable if I mix in Jim Beam Rye or a strong bourbon like Knob Creek.
So there you have it. I took a Bulleit for you. You're welcome.
