I keep rye and bourbon in the bar as my go-to. Most of what I drink is local to here, but an old friend brought some Buffalo Trace for us to drink earlier this year. I hadn't had it before; it was decent enough to sip with a cube to soften the bite. Bulleit is a good baseline; we've restocked our rye supply with it more than once.
If you see any of these give them a try. The one exception is Copperworks. That place is too young to make anything worth a damn in copper stills. Everything I've had of theirs tastes like paint thinner.

I'll drink rye whiskey or bourbon whiskey. Usually keep Basil Haydens in the house as my go to sipper. I think the last rye I bought was Sagamore Rye Whiskey out of Baltimore. It was decent but the price point was higher than I liked for the quality.

Whistle pig is really good, but not really worth the cost.
Only rye in my Manhattan, please.

My work gave us Sagamore a few years ago. I'll drink it but won't buy it. Think it's shit for the price.
Agreed that Bulleit is a good base.
